The Monetary expenditures function is for entering expenditures that were made from your campaign bank account.
If someone spends money from their own funds to help your campaign, that should be entered as an in-kind contribution or an in-kind loan.
To enter funds spent from your campaign bank account, use the Monetary Expenditures function, which is under Expenditures on the ORCA dashboard. Click on Vendor Paid and find the vendor in the contact list, or if the vendor isn’t an existing contact, use the Create New Contact function to create a contact for that vendor.
The expense date is the date that the money was spent. Use the category or account to indicate the category or account that best fits what you bought.
Enter the amount. Use the expense item description field to describe what was purchased. If you bought printed material, explain what kind of printed matter it was (flyers, posters, etc.) and include the number of items that you purchased. Click the Save button.
