Maintaining the Gift Aid rate

Gift Aid is a tax relief allowing UK charities to reclaim an extra 25% in tax on every eligible donation made by a UK taxpayer.

IRIS Financials Charity Edition calculates the eligible amount of Gift Aid to reclaim using a rule.

To update the Gift Aid rate the rule uses to calculate Gift Aid:

  1. Go to MaintenanceKeylists, then select GIFTAID_RATE.

  2. Select EDIT, then enter the Gift Aid rate in the Value field and select SAVE.
