Hi there, @user01428.

Great to have you in the Community. I can assist you with entering the donations in your QuickBooks account. 

First, you need to go to your Chart of Accounts and create a Charitable Contributions account.

1. Locate the List option in QuickBooks.
2. Select Chart of Accounts.
3. On the bottom of the page Click Account then select New.
4. Choose the Bank as the account type, then select Continue.
5. Create a name for the account. (example:  Charitable Contributions)
6. Save and Close.

Now let's create a discount item; this will take care of the cost of the inventory donated.

1. Click List.
2. Choose Item List.
3. Hit the drop-down arrow at the bottom of the Item List.
4. Create New.
5.  Choose Discount for the type of Item created.
6. Enter the Description and leave the Amount or % of the discount blank so you can choose the Amount that the donated items.
7. Select which Chart of Accounts this will map too.
8. Select the Tax Code of the Discount.

• • Taxable
  • Non-Taxable

       9. Click Ok.

Once completed, you can create a sales receipt, which will include the donated stock and Item you just created.
