Donor Accounts
Learn more about donor accounts, including tips to manage donor accounts, and the fields you'll encounter and what they mean.
A Donor Account record is created or referenced when a check is scanned and MICR is read by the Batch Manager Tool (BMT). It is used to speed data entry by matching donors to donations being processed in the BMT. For more details on how donors are matched, see Donor Matching.
The views on the Donor Account page are helpful to identify what accounts are in use, not in use, and have multiple donors assigned.
