Outgoing donations tracking

[crazyhorse]

Hi all,
It's my first topic here and I anticipate you that I'm 100% not sure this is the right section 
I've installed CiviCRM on my non-profit organization (Wordpress 4.2.2, CiviCRM 4.6.3, MySql 5.1 and PHP 5.3), a trashware association which get computers from companies, other association and families and donate them to people who cannot purchase a computer.
Do you know if there are modules / extension which can allow us to track the outgoing donations too?
I can see that with CiviContribute it's possible to track donations, but it's not applicable to our needs, is that correct? If I well looked at it, it shouldn't be possible to track the donation of computers to us, only moneys...right?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I would use a separate type of contribution (and probably a separate type of payment type as well) to track outgoing. This way it will not show in the dashboard of contributions received, and won't show in double. Although I suppose computer hardware becomes a form of asset that is distributed. It could be tracked as a simple activity as well? (although I kind of wish we had a better way to track assets in CiviCRM, I have clients that need to track food coupons, for example)

It might be best to ask your question on the new Q&A site for CiviCRM on Stack Exchange:
https://civicrm.stackexchange.com

The forums are still here for general discussions, but this seems like a question for which people could suggest specific solutions.
