Custom contribution data available on Register Event Participant page?
July 29, 2010, 10:55:45 am
Hi, when you register a new event participant, you are given the opportunity to record a contribution in conjunction with the registration.  However, the contribution fields available are limited.  Custom data contribution fields are not available, not even if they are required fields.  

Is this possible to add custom fields to the contribution section of register event participant feature in some way that I have overlooked?  

If this requires coding does anyone have a time estimate to create this functionality?

Thank you.

Nope it is not possible.

Do you want to add specific fields or show custom data based on contribution type?

I want to show all custom fields that are associated with the contribution type that is associated with the event registration.  In the default case, this would be all custom fields for Contribution types "Any Contribution" or "Event Fee".

I hope this is an enhancement that would be useful to more than just me personally, and would thus help the project as a whole.

Since we already have event custom data on same form, we need a right way to differentiate between event and contribution custom data. This will involve fare amount of code rewriting / cleanup. I would estimate 80 - 100 hours for this feature.

Ouch.  $thousands?  Way out of our budget.  Thanks anyhow.

What if it was just a specific custom hack for 1 or 2 specific custom fields for one site (via hooks)?

I also am looking for something like this. I need to be able to associate a donation with an event. Is this not possible? barely any of the income we generate if from registration, it almost all comes from sponsorship and we need a way of assigning the sponsorship to an event.

you can potentially do this with a "select" custom field on contributions and use the custom option hook to populate it with the event names. Your report can then include all registrations to that event and all contribution which have the above the custom field set to the same event

u'll need a good knowledge of php/mysql/civicrm to do so

Thanks Lobo

I have been doing some learning and i think i would be able to at least give it a bash myself. We don't have the budget to hire anyone from outside to do the work. I'm just going to have to work it out.

Out of these which would be the best for me to adapt for my purpose?http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC32/CiviCRM+hook+specification.

any help would be much appreciated.
