I'm a nonprofit. Why do donations show up as sales in reports?

There are different ways to enter a donation. You can record it as a sales receipt, invoice, or a deposit.

Meanwhile, you can also pull up the various reports that shows the transactions from donors like Sales by Customer Details or Transaction List by Customer.
