Questions

Can I cancel a donation?

Yes, with a reason, from the donation’s sheet. Treasurers can cancel only on the same day; admins any time.

Can I delete an expense?

Only one that has not been paid at all. Once anything is paid, it stays on record.

Does the public link show who gave?

It follows the event’s setting: full names, initials or hidden. Donations marked private never show the name.
