Allow users to change the gift amount before validating in web view

Our org likes to fully separate things like donor-covered fees from our gift amount in database view, rather than splitting the gift - we prefer for each item to have its own line. Currently, for transactions in web view, this is not possible if the donor gave via credit card using one of Blackbaud's donation or event registration forms. I have to validate the gift as-is, then go back into database view and change the gift amount, and create a separate new gift for the processing fees. This is a logistical nightmare when we have lots of donors covering fees and creating twice as much work on our entry. Please allow users to edit the gift amount as they can in database view!

    Yes, please!! Donations and fees are handled separately in reporting, finance, etc. This would be most useful. Just download the registration fee and the donation as separate gifts. Almabase has this as a choice in their setup. Thanks.

    Yes Please!!! Currently I have to add a duplicate gift with $0.00. This keeps all gifts in the same batch. Then after approving the batch I have to edit both gifts to get them set correctly, before sending reports to Accounting, and before receipting them.
