Hello, I'm interested in finding out how other organizations handle multi-year Campaign reporting when a pledge is reduced due to a third party contribution. I understand a third-party donation cannot be directly applied to an individual's personal pledge. The donation should be recorded in the Third party's record with credit to the individual, the individual's pledge is then reduced by the amount of the donation. For Campaign reporting, the pledge total is reported during the year the pledge is initially recorded. How do you account for reducing the pledge total in a future year without affecting the campaign totals for the year the initial pledge was recorded?
