Hello duhsophie-gmail-,

 

Thanks for joining us here in the QuickBooks Community! I love that you're working with a charity that's using QuickBooks Online to manage the books. I know there are some specific forms when it comes to charities, such as donation receipts, and I'd be happy to explain the options here.

 

QuickBooks Online is geared toward small businesses, although some charities also find using the program a reliable tool for keep on top of finances and bookkeeping. Given that the program is designed for small businesses, there isn't at this time a specific form for donation receipts that a charity would require. I know a number of organizations end up using and customizing a sales receipt to the best of their abilities to meet the needs of a donation receipt. Although it's not a perfect solution, it may work for you, and I'll leave you with this article about customizing sales forms: Customize invoices, estimates, and sales receipts in QuickBooks Online

 

If that doesn't quite work for you, I recommend considering using a template outside of the QuickBooks Online software to have a donation receipt you can give to your donors. There may even be a third-party app you can use to achieve this. Check out the Apps tab in your books to research the available options.

 

This is also a great opportunity to leave feedback for our product development team. The product team loves learning from users what they'd like to see in the program, so this is a great chance to share your ideas. Here's how it's done: How do I submit feedback?. If you'd like, I also recommend bookmarking the QuickBooks Online Feature & Product Updates page, which highlights new features to the program as they become available.

 

Don't hesitate if you have more questions. I hope you enjoy the rest of your day.
