How to fill out the new Fund Balance module
August 1, 2022
By: Chris Hampton, Director of IT Services
This year (2022), we are introducing a new Fund Balance module to replace the Fund Balance form you have used in your Charge Conference paperwork for the last three years. This new module is more user-friendly and shows all the funds in a more natural grid-like way, making it easier to update and view your funds information from year to year. Even better, it handles all the calculations and is easy to print and keep for your records!
If at any time you have any tech-related questions about how to fill out this new module, please contact IT Services at (704) 464-0994 or it@wnccumc.org
To begin, login into your Church Dashboard and follow these instructions:
