Accounting is a Ministry plan feature.

How it fills itself in

Every gift you record creates an invoice here automatically. You do not enter a donation twice — once in the CRM, once in the books. The same is true of a confirmed event payment.

What you get

  • Every recorded gift as an invoice, with a receipt number
  • Totals your treasurer can reconcile against your payment accounts
  • Exports for your accountant or your annual return

Reconciling

Because Harvest never sees your money, your books are only as complete as your recording.
1

Open your payment accounts

PayPal, Revolut, whatever you use.
2

Compare against your Harvest total

Anything in your account but not in Harvest is a gift nobody recorded.
3

Record the gap

It then appears in your books, on your dashboard, and in the member’s own statement.
Doing this weekly takes minutes. Doing it in January takes a day and you will have forgotten who half the payments were from.

What Harvest is not

Harvest keeps the record of what your church received. It is not a full ledger — it does not track your expenses, your payroll or your gift aid claims.
For most small churches, Harvest plus a spreadsheet for expenses is enough. For anything more, export from Harvest into your accounting software.
