How to handle an NSF check
(rev. 3/15)
Go to Donations>Browse and find the giver whose check was returned for NSF.
Highlight the line of the donation that needs reversed and click Reverse & NSF
The Reverse Donation screen opens, we recommend using the Date Occurred to reverse the transaction
and check Reversed due to Non-Sufficient Funds (NSF).
• Click OK to post the change and affect only the Donations module
• Click OK & Transfer to save the change and transfer the reversal to the Accounting module.
If you chose OK & Transfer
• Click Yes to Permanently reverse the Donation
• Click OK to the message informing you this transaction has been reversed.
• The Transfer Donations to Accounting screen will appear with the Date Occurred and the Total Amount will show as a
negative because it is reversed.
• Click on Post to Transfer to Accounting
• The Confirm DONA Transaction screen will appear with the Asset account showing negative as a Debit and the
Income/Expense/Liability account showing negative as a Credit. Click on Post.

Please note: the date of the reversed transaction (NSF) is important because you do not want to affect a
completed bank reconciliation and/or reports. The NSF will appear on your bank reconciliation as a negative in
the Deposits section, this item will need to be checked off to clear within the correct bank reconciliation.
