ACEweb Donations

Allow users to donate money via ACEweb. You can have a donation type course where all donations reside, or you can add an open-ended fee to specific courses--when the user adds that course to the Cart, they will have the opportunity to donate money to it.

***IMPORTANT NOTICES***

• The Donations feature is an ACEweb option only. It is not supported when adding registrations via Student Manager.
• For ACEweb to properly display Donation amounts in registration confirmation emails, you must upgrade your current confirmation email templates to the new format. Please contact your ACEware technician for more information.
