With the Finance module, your school gets a public donation page where anyone can give — one-time or monthly — and a Giving tab in every parent's Billing. Online gifts are receipted automatically; you issue receipts for cheque or cash gifts.
- Connect online payments first (Settings → Online payments).
- Set your charity / registration number under Settings → School details so it prints on every receipt, and capture the receipt signature from Finance → Donations (it works well on an iPad).
- Share your donation page: Finance → Donations shows the link, with Open page and Download QR.
- Online gifts are emailed a receipt with a PDF attached. For a cheque or cash gift, choose New receipt, fill in the donor and amount, then Send receipt from the row's ⋯ — nothing is emailed until you send it.
- The Donors tab totals giving by donor; the Receipts tab can be filtered by fund.

Parents find their giving and tax receipts under Billing → Giving (or Give in their menu).
