Donation Settings
Used to control certain actions within GiftWorks related to donations. 

• Default Currency - this controls the appearance and formatting of currency within GiftWorks.
• Allow Zero Dollar Donations - this setting determines whether GiftWorks will allow you to enter a donation of zero dollars within GiftWorks.  Some organizations want to track in-kind gifts that do not have a specific dollar value associated with it and this setting would allow you to enter this type of gift.  Other organizations always want a dollar value associated with the donation regardless of the kind of gift.
• Fiscal Start Date - this is used to define within GiftWorks when the fiscal year begins so that certain calculations or reports can properly determine what should be included in the fiscal year.
