Hi, I'm a new ward clerk, I have a question concerning reimbursing an institution associated with our stake.
There is a local youth camp (owned by church members), and our stake contributes part of its budget to supporting the youth camp so that organizations within the participating wards and stakes can use the camp and its facilities at greatly discounted rates.
In the past, I believe that a member would book the campsites/cabins/whatever and the camp later sends an invoice to that member, who then sends an electronic payment (in Canada these are called e-transfers) to the camp. All you need is a name and email address to make the e-transfer.
My bishop says that he heard that it is now possible to make e-transfers from the LCR interface and has tasked me with finding out how to do this.
How would I go about doing this? Or is this even possible?
Under the 'Enter Expenses' tab I tried adding a new payee with the youth camp rep's name and the email used for receiving payments, but I got the "No EFT details exist for this Participant...." message, which leaves me to believe that the payment wouldn't go through if I sent it.
I also poked around in the 'Transfers' tab since the youth camp is somehow affiliated with the church in our area, but it does not appear under units within our stake or within out-of-stake units.
Any and all feedback would be most appreciated.
