Description For Transcation Type Incoming Funds Is Incorrect

Raised from Zendesk ticket #1047. Currently the description for Incoming Funds on the codelist for Transaction Type states that IF transations only relate to 'external' funds. This is apprantly not the case and IF transactions can be used to describe transfers between accounts or projects within a single organisation

    New description for Incoming Funds in http://iatistandard.org/codelists/TransactionType/

    • Funds received (whether from an external source or through internal accounting) for specific use on this activity.

    Moving to the 1.05 upgrade forum for consideration.

    There is a fix for this in 2.01 which I recommend be brought forward into 1.05

    Yes, a broader definition is useful. E.g. for all projects financed through private fund raising of the own organisation.
