I also mentioned "For PowerChurch Online users that have already been upgraded to Version 15, no further action needs to be taken. Others will be gradually upgraded over the next couple of weeks." If you would like your PowerChurch Online account to be upgraded now (or at a specific time that is bes...

An Account Activity report in Fund Accounting for the Balance Sheet account in question will show you each individual transaction that debited or credited that account.

A new Maintenance Release dated 11/24/2025 has been released for PowerChurch Plus Version 15. The update will automatically download and install, but you can trigger the download by going to Help > Download Maintenance Release. You can also manually download and install the Maintenance Release by vi...

The minimum requirements for a server are really just to be able to host an accessible file share. Unless the server itself is going to be used as a workstation for PowerChurch, in which case Windows Vista (~2006 era hardware) is still compatible, so a new OS shouldn't be an issue. What is published...

In addition to the Account Activity, run a Detail Changes in Equity report for that specific equity account. That report is essentially an Account Activity that shows the accounts/transactions that "closed to" (affected) the equity balance.

If you don't have "Is missing date" on that second step, then it sounds like you don't have a date field selected in the first step



You will see the field name listed in the title bar ("Birth Date is missing a date" in the image above)

In newer versions of the software, it's under the Other Output menu. I will get those articles updated

On the View Posted Contributions screen, use the Find or Locate button to bring up the contributor in question, then select that contribution and click "Change Pledge". On the window that opens, uncheck "Do not apply this contribution to a pledge" and choose the pledge that you want to apply it to. ...

Everything is up and running without issue on our end, so my guess would be an antivirus/firewall or something else in an internet security suite blocking that specific port number (491)

When you reindex the database, the list will be rebuilt from those that are assigned. You can reindex by going to Utilities > Reindex. If after reindexing, you still see the typo cities in the dropdown list, that means someone still has that typo city assigned. The list is shared between all city fi...

This thread has the most thorough discussion on that topic:

Older versions of the software had a single date field on that report labeled "Items through date", meaning you only had an ending date selection. To make the report more useful, while not changing the default behavior, Version 11.5 (2011) changed that selection to a date range, from the beginning o...

The process to reduce the balance would be the same, except the debits and credits would be reversed.

Credit the checking account and Debit the equity/fund balance/net assets.

Since you haven't been accruing the interest, I believe the transaction would be much simpler - something like the following: 01-1320-000 Bank Asset (Debit) $251,856.16 01-1376-000 CD Asset (Credit) $245,000.00 01-4460-000 Investment Income (Credit) $6,856.16 Also - disclaimer - I'm not an accountan...

There is not a plan to update that functionality currently. With donated items not being recorded as income or deposited in the bank, and the IRS not wanting you to include them on the person's Contribution Statement with a dollar amount assigned, there really isn't anything to record on the Contrib...
