Title: Excel or word making reciepts
Post by: redfridaygirl on April 06, 2011, 11:07:29 AM

Hi, I am sorry if this isn't posted in the correct section, I am new at forums. I was wondering if someone might be able to help me or guide me where to source help. I am building a database for a charitable foundation. I am looking to be able to make and print receipts for when someone makes a donation. Here is what I am looking to build and every receipt must populate or generate a new number on the page.

Foundation Logo
Name and Address of foundation                                                    Receipt #  (every receipt is by Project –so NSS2011     00001)

                                                                                                                                             

Received:          ---------------------$xxxx.xxx-------------------------------------------------------------------00/xx $____________________

 
Name:          __________________________________

Address:        The name and address have to fit into a windowed envelope

                   So there is no need to write out the address or do up a label                   

 Registered Charitable No.. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx                                                 Signed by

Canada Revenue Agency www.cra.gc.ca/charities                                                     ______________________________________
                                                                                       

We have to have duplicate receipts, probably 4 receipts to a page  - Receipt original as laid out above goes to donor
Same receipt so as you are filling in original the second one is populating, but this one will have a duplicate watermark on it
Receipt original – 4 on a page (1 original at top, perforated/then duplicate, then another original and duplicate. I hope this makes sense and I am hoping someone might be able to help me out.

Thanks Becky.

I am building a database for a charitable foundation ...

Database is a key word here.  Do you have Microsoft Access?  Are you familiar with it?  I believe it would really be the best tool for your purpose. 

Do you work for the Canadian government?  I get that impression from the link you posted.  If so, do you have an internal IT support section that could assist you with this?
