I came to this page looking for this exact solution. This is incredibly important. As Clinton Williams said below, keeping our General Donation live is a must. And Robert Hartman speaks to the time wasted on manual Excel corrections -- UGH!!! We are new to GiveButter, but not new to fundraising. To see that this has been a conversation for 5 years is very sad. Please GiveButter, make it happen. We do appreciate your product and the work to make it smooth. We just need the melted butter approach :)

This feature has been requested for five years (we’ll hit that mark in a few days) and remains the top request by ~2 times over any other feature or bug fix. We were told it would arrive early 2025 and that we’d be alpha testers. Nothing has been delivered. It was marked “In Progress” in March 2024—that was 18 months ago. It should not take this long to build and release.
Because we can’t move misassigned gifts between campaigns, we cannot use Givebutter as our ledger. We’re forced to maintain separate Excel tracking just to keep reports and allocations straight—burning countless staff hours every month that should go to the mission.
The fallout for nonprofits:
1) Reporting & audits: We’re reconciling known-wrong data outside the platform.
2) Thermometers & pages: Online totals don’t add up, which visibly erodes donor trust.
3) Stewardship & finance: Thank-yous reference the wrong fund; exports/payouts require manual cleanup.
Please deliver the basics now: enable moving a transaction between campaigns with all original details intact (donor, amount, date, fees, payout batch, notes, soft credits) and recalculate thermometers/exports automatically.
Give a specific delivery date and honor the alpha-tester commitment. Five years is far too long for your most-requested fix.
Come on, Givebutter—this is your customers’ top need. Please give us nonprofits what we need.

Is this actually being worked on? It's a HIGH priority for us to continue to utlize Givebutter for all donation campaigns. We need to be able to keep our main donation campaign live but also have the ability to run individual campaigns. Inevitably people will make a donation to the main campaign instead of the individual but we really need to be able to assign them to the correct one to track it appropriately.

Can we get an update please. I was advised this feature would be available by the end of last quarter. The inability to make corrections to transactions that are mistakenly attributed to the wrong campaign is an ongoing problem. Update: we have had another event and once again donations were misapplied to the incorrect campaign because the donor used an old saved link in her browser. We can reassign to a different contact but not to a different campaign when an error like this occurs.
