• 16:47, 13 November 2025 Myla talk contribs created page AdventistGiving Mapping Accuracy (Created page with "Accuracy matters. Whether in baking, construction, accounting or meeting someone at a certain place, "something like" is usually not good enough. And when dealing with mapping both Adventist Giving accounts and names, accuracy is all-important. When John Smith donates to “Tithe” and “ADRA” in a Sabbath envelope, but his donation is posted to John Small for “Church Budget” and “Local Community Services,” it is a problem. But it is just one envelope, and t...")
• 01:10, 13 November 2025 Myla talk contribs created page AdventistGiving Entry Methods Compared (Created page with "Your donors have donated, Adventist Giving has prepared a Deposit Report for your church’s Bank Account, and the money will soon be deposited to your church’s checking account. Now what? How do the donations appear in Jewel? '''''NOTE:''''' '''There are three entry methods, each with advantages and drawbacks. We recommend importing the donations because of ease and accuracy, but you can decide which method you prefer.''' Here is a summary of the three methods. ==[...")

• 17:50, 12 November 2025 Myla talk contribs created page AdventistGiving Manual Entry Instructions (Created page with "* This method is used to enter the offerings on the deposit report manually, one donor envelope at a time. * This method is slower than either of the “Import” methods, but it works well if just one or two of your members are using Adventist Giving. * This method may be preferred by treasurers who prefer a simple, more familiar method. First, read AdventistGiving Information so you know which report you need to print. Then follow these eight steps. # Log in to yo...")

• 18:03, 11 November 2025 Myla talk contribs created page AdventistGiving Information (Created page with "When you go to church each week, you can drop your offering in the plate or bag or bucket, or if you are like me, I often had to chase the deacon or treasurer down at the end of the service, since I was usually at the piano when the offering was taken up. But once the counting is finished and the treasurer has left the building, that is it until next week. Adventist Giving is different. You can donate all day, all night, any day of the month. But at some point, they have...")
• 17:29, 11 November 2025 Myla talk contribs created page Transactions Involving Conference Funds (Created page with "Remember that Conference Funds are designated for the Conference. They are to be remitted in full at the end of each month. Under no circumstances should they be used at the local church level. For this reason, Jewel heavily restricts how and when Conference Funds can be accessed. However, mistakes happen, so there are mechanisms for correction. ====Funds Credited to Wrong Account==== If you have not yet closed the month, first try to Making Corrections#Donation Attri...")
• 16:35, 11 November 2025 Myla talk contribs created page Corrections In a Previous Month (Created page with "Because closed months cannot be edited or otherwise changed (for the protection of both the church and the treasurer), if you need to correct an entry in a previous month you will need to either enter a correcting transaction in the current month (usually the best solution) or contact tech support for help. ===Offering Deposit=== Deposit correction involves a bit of finesse, as the correction method depends on the issue. Precise end-of-year donor receipts are essential,...")
• 16:22, 11 November 2025 Myla talk contribs created page Corrections In the Current Month (Created page with "As long as you have not yet closed the month, Jewel allows you to make changes to nearly any type of transaction and correct nearly any type of error or omission. In general, find a report that includes the transaction you want to correct, then click on the transaction to open it. Click or checkmark "Edit", make your correction and click OK to save your changes. If your correction doesn't fit that general strategy, see below for specific instructions for specific types o...")
• 14:07, 11 November 2025 Myla talk contribs created page Year End Processes (Created page with "There are two year ends you will encounter - the Fiscal and the Calendar. Most likely these will coincide at the end of December of each year. However, some churches end their fiscal year at some other time during the year - usually June 30. For the fiscal year end, you will need to do year-end budget tasks (if your church has made a budget), zero out funds as necessary, print year- and month-end reports, and back up data. For the calendar year end, you will follow the u...")
• 13:58, 11 November 2025 Myla talk contribs created page Entering Common Transactions (Created page with "== Entering Common Transactions == === Checks and Other Payments === In Jewel, all payments are made in the Write Checks screen, whether you print a physical check with Jewel, hand-write a paper check, use a debit/credit card, or send an electronic payment. Checking the Electronic Payment box removes the Check Number field, so use that for anything that is not a paper check. Otherwise, fill out the check as usual. Note that the total check amount must equal the Running...")
• 13:42, 11 November 2025 Myla talk contribs created page Month End Processes (Created page with "You have the NextStep button to guide you through the month-end processes. You don't need to remember what to do next! There are two ways to begin the month end process. The easiest and most common is that after you have clicked "Make Deposit" for the last Sabbath of the month, Jewel will ask if you have entered all offerings for the month. Double-check the list of offerings shown, making sure to include AdventistGiving if appropriate. If all deposits have been entered...")
• 13:36, 11 November 2025 Myla talk contribs created page Receiving and Handling Offerings (Created page with "== Receiving and Handling Offerings == === Counting the Offering === Before you can enter an offering in Jewel, the offering must be counted.

Dual Counting--having two people present whenever an offering is being co...")

Here's how to deal with the different types of transactions to get them out of there. ==Outstanding Checks== An “outstanding” or “uncleared” check is a check that the "vendor" or "payee" has never deposited or cashed.

It is your responsibility as Treasurer to add new accounts when warranted. But this decision takes careful thought, as too many detailed accounts become cumbersome, while too few accounts many not give enough breakdown of the church's spending.
