Operations

Individual or Single Tax Receipts

These are receipts issued as one receipt to one contribution.

• To issue an individual receipt, pull up the contact record, go to 'contributions' tab, view the contribution, and click the "Tax Receipt" button. Follow on-screen instructions from there. Single receipts can be issued in bulk for multiple contributions. This process issues one receipt per contribution.
• To issue bulk-issue receipts, go to Contributions > Find Contributions, run a search, select one or more search results, and select "Issue Tax Receipts" in the actions drop-down. Follow on-screen instructions from there.

Annual Tax Receipts

These are receipts that collect all outstanding contributions for the year into one receipt. If some contributions have already been sent a receipt they will not be included in the total. Since there are multiple contributions on one receipt there are some differences in the template. In-kind fields are not shown, contribution type and source are also not shown since the collected contributions over the year could be of multiple types and from multiple sources.

• To issue Annual Tax Receipts, go to Search > Find Contacts (or Search > Advanced Search), run a search for contacts, select one or more contacts, and select "Issue Annual Tax Receipts" in the actions drop-down. Follow on-screen instructions from there.

The extension also enables two report templates, which can be used to see a list of receipts issued and receipts outstanding.

• Tax Receipts - Receipts Issued
• Tax Receipts - Receipts Not Issued

hook_cdntaxreceipts_eligible()

You may be in a situation where certain Contributions are eligible for tax receipts and others are not (e.g. donations are receiptable, but only for individuals, and event fees are not receiptable). If this is the case, there is a PHP hook hook_cdntaxreceipts_eligible($contribution) that can be used for complex eligibility criteria. Hook implementations should return one of TRUE or FALSE, wrapped in an array.

// Example hook implementation:
//  Contributions have a custom yes/no field called "receiptable". Issue tax receipt
//  on any contribution where receiptable = Yes.
function mymodule_cdntaxreceipts_eligible( $contribution ) {

  // load custom field
  $query = "
  SELECT receiptable_119
  FROM civicrm_value_tax_receipt_23
  WHERE entity_id = %1";

  $params = array(1 => array($contribution->id, 'Integer'));
  $field = CRM_Core_DAO::singleValueQuery($query, $params);

  if ( $field == 1 ) {
    return array(TRUE);
  }
  else {
    return array(FALSE);
  }

}

By default, a contribution is eligible for tax receipting if it is completed, and if its Financial Type is deductible.
