Recognition Orders


Recognitions Orders are due by 11:59 p.m. on March 21. Our Snap Guide will walk you through the process, but here are a few tips to help you out:
  • Prior to creating the recognitions order, collect recognition requests from girls and complete all Troop-to-Girl Transfers in Snap.
  • Run the Girl Cookie Totals Summary Report in Snap to see current credit given to girls for cookies sales. This report will show each girl’s Cookie Share, cookies sold, and final sale total. Recognitions Orders will populate based on these totals.
  • Create your troop’s main Recognitions Order in Snap. If you do not create this order, no patches or recognitions will be ordered for your troop.  
Please note: Girls with a Girl/Parent Shortage Forms on file will not receive her recognitions until the balance is resolved.

Last ACH Sweep

The final ACH Sweep is scheduled for Tuesday, March 25. This will be for 100% of your troop’s remaining balance. An email with your troop’s balance owed will be sent from our Finance Department on Wednesday, March 19 by the end of the business day.  please make sure to follow these steps:
  • Complete all  Troop-to-Girl and Troop-to-Troop Transfers in Snap by March 19.
  • Submit all ACH Adjustment Forms and Girl Shortage Forms by Friday, March 21 at 5 p.m. to finance@gsiowa.org. For faster processing, please use the email subject line “ACH Adjustment Form.” Any forms received after this date will not be processed in time to change the amount being swept.
If you’d like to view the balance you owe, you can see it in Snap under: Reports > Summary Reports> Troop Balance Summary. Please note: this balance will change any time a Troop-to-Troop Transfer is done. For more information, check out our tips on Money Management and ACH information.
