Getting Started

Receipt Settings

In order to generate official charitable tax receipts, certain legally-required fields must be set. If you are issuing receipts in English and French, receipt fields must be completed in both official languages.

Editable fields are as follows:

Preview

To view how your receipt looks, use the Preview button. This will generate a PDF mock-up of the receipt prior to saving your changes.

Save

Clicking “Save” will create your Standard Tax Receipt template for the first time.

After the first save, updates to Templates or Tax Receipt Settings can be made by System Administrators at any time. Clicking “Save” will immediately reflect changes on receipts generated using the Standard Template moving forward.

How do I add my logo and signature:

To ensure logos and signatures appear correctly on your branded tax receipt, simply upload images that meet the following specifications:

  • Logo: 520 px x 220 px
  • Signature: 600 px x 128 px
  • Images must be in JPG (recommended) or PNG with a white background

If your Logo, and Signature Images are not the exact advised dimensions when uploading to your tax receipt, it will likely cause the image to distort. In order to resize your image, you can use Photoshop, or another photo editing program to make them look great. 

By adding a white background box created in the advised dimensions then drag and drop your pre-existing Logo/Signature Image into the box - that's it!

To upload the image, press the Select button, which will allow you to select the image file directly from your computer.

After pressing the Upload button, we recommend pressing the Preview button to review the receipt.

If all looks good, click Save.

Adjusting your tax receipt

Adjusting your Standard System Template receipt can be done under the General Setup navigation tab any time following the same steps above to reflect changes at your organization.

When updating an existing receipt is modified, any saved changes you make will affect all future receipts issued through the system.
