Hi!


I need help determining if certain reimbursable expenses through an in-direct grant should be recorded in RE.  We receive reimbursements through a partner org who was awarded a grant and is passing those "funds" along to us.  We are not the direct recipient of the grant and don't see any of the funds.  We submit invoices to our partner org and then a reimbursement payment is sent to us.


We've never had this instance occur before, so this is new ground to cover for me.

    IMO, if you don't see any of the funds, what do you have to record in RE?  IMO anything with this scenario would be recorded in accounting/FE but I wouldn't record in RE.  


    I'm sure there is a reason out there but I just don't see it. :)

    Since we tie Raiser's Edge to bank deposits, I would record those as nondonor "gifts." We use the gift type "Other" and non-donor specific gift coding to seperate those out on reports, etc. This isn't ideal, but it is the best for financial reconciliation in our case.
