Receiveing Donations and deducting fees in one transaction

[Jim Clay]

I am hoping to get some guidance on using the financial side of the Do
Good Better bundle.

We get a LOT of our donations through PayPal. As of right now, this
is not a problem as we haven't implemented the Donor Relations side,
but I am doing some testing in order to prepare for that
implementation.

When we get a PayPal donation, my intention is to use the NOF-Donation
(Cash Sale) form for entry. I am able to enter the Donation amount as
an item, and then under the accounting tab I set it to go direct to
our PayPal account. There is a spot for Fee Value, but that appears
to have to bearing on the G/L. What I would like to do is enter the
donation amount so that the Donor gets credit for it and then have the
fee amount entered as well, which in my thinking I should NOT enter as
an item as it will apply negatively against the Donor's contribution
statement.

Is there a way to have the fee entered on this form and deducted from
our PP account and applied against the appropriate expense account?

Thanks,
Jim
