Parish Cluster Shared Expenses - Helpful Information
Cluster parishes share a pastor and most times they share pastor and clergy related expenses in agreed percentages between the cluster parishes. The primary church in the cluster pays the supplier bills or the pastor salary and the other cluster parishes pay their portions back to the primary cluster parish. The link below provides useful information on how the primary parish in the cluster can use the ParishSoft ConnectNow Payroll and Ledger modules to manage these shared costs efficiently. This link gives step by step setup instructions on how to setup payroll distributions to manage the sharing of the pastor salary and how to setup memorized transactions to cost share bills from suppliers that are shared.
