Manage Recurring Giving¶
This serves as a management page for a user with the appropriate role(s) to view, add, edit, or delete a donor’s recurring giving.
Donors and Their Recurring Giving
Any donor with a user account can go to his own record, click the Giving > Contributions tab, and then use the Manage Your Recurring Giving button to make any changes to his or her recurring giving.

You can even see gifts scheduled to process on a particular date by typing in that date.
