View source for Procedure for Collecting Cash Dues

When members pay dues in cash, it is important to provide a receipt to act as a record for both the member and the organization.
#Always begin by confirming the cash amount handed to you.
#Verbally confirm the member's intention.  For example, if a member hands you $60, say, "You want to pay dues, and I owe you $10?"
#After the member has confirmed the payment, write a receipt to reflect the amount.
#On the receipt:
##Fill out the date of the payment on the "Date" line.
##Fill out the member's name on the "From" line.
##Fill out the amount on the "$" line.
##Include "Dues" and the appropriate month(s) on the "For" line.
##Put the amount in the "Paid" box.
##Check the appropriate payment method.
##Put your initials in the "By" line.
#Give the receipt copy and change to the member.
