I need to set up a quick way to record, track and balance donations made at
an auction. Donor will be given a number, then when they come to pay I
need
to be able to quickly total their purchases and check them out. I've
thought
about a look-up chart in Excel but am unclear on how to go about setting
it
up. I could also use QuickBooks, but I can't find where it will let you
use
account numbers for customers. I need a quick way to cross reference the
name and number. Any suggestions? This in non-profit, so I have no budget
for any other programs.
