What's New
This GiftWrap and Bequest Manager release includes numerous improvements.
On July 5, we announced our latest release of GiftWrap and Bequest Manager. This release focused on fixes, small enhancements, upgrading of components, and overall usability.
New features include:
- A new field has been added to Charity Setup allowing you to suppress “old” data in Verify.
- QCD asset type is a new option under Assets allowing you to filter by gifts funded with QCD assets.
- The time from prenote to EFT payment is now configurable. Previously, if a payment address had been prenoted, the prenote field was hardcoded requiring 11 days from the prenote date to the current date in order for an EFT payment to be produced.
- Under Compute PIF Market Values, you may select multiple pooled income funds and compute the market values.
These enhancements and others are further detailed in the GiftWrap 4.3.7 and Bequest Manager 1.3.7 Release Notes. Look for the Latest Product Info link at the top of your screen within the application.
GiftWrap Support Topics
These brief topics will point you in the right direction, but clients are always welcome to contact Client Services for assistance at 888-474-2252 or support@pgcalc.com. Clients will also find detailed instructions in the GiftWrap HELP system.
1099-R deadlines are as follows:
January 31, 2022 - Paper forms to annuitants
February 28, 2022 - Paper forms to the IRS
March 31, 2022 - Electronic form to the IRS – required if more than 500 1099-Rs
1099-Rs are produced based on the data in the Tax Schedule in the Association Information screen, not the data in the Payment Schedule. GiftWrap can produce correct 1099-Rs even if the system is not used to produce payments:
- Run Verify Person and Gift Data in the Utilities menu and correct any errors
- Run Year End Update in the Actions menu to bring your Organization Year to 2022
- In the 1099-R Forms interface, set Tax Year to 2021
- Use PDF, not Report Viewer, as the Display Option
This issue arises because GiftWrap produces the 1099-R information in the precise size required to fit data into the little boxes on the pre-printed 1099-R forms, but many printers and some browsers automatically resize before printing.
You can identify the resizing issue because the data will typically print a little too low relative to the boxes on the top half of the 1099-R form and too high on the bottom half. The trick is to persuade your printer to print the GiftWrap data without alteration.
In the Print Dialog window, look for the setting that controls sizing. Printer drivers use different terms, but you want “Page Scaling” set to “None” or “Actual Size” or “100%”. In Chrome, there is a checkbox labeled “Fit to page” and this box must be Unchecked.
GiftWrap License and Service FAQ
No, GiftWrap and Bequest Manager licenses are concurrent. This means, for example, if your organization has two licenses, only two people can logon simultaneously but any number of individuals may have login credentials and can take turns using the software.
Yes, licenses may be reassigned to different users by contacting Client Services. Licenses may not be reassigned to a different organization.
The GiftWrap License is a click-thru agreement and the text can be viewed any time in GiftWrap or Bequest Manager by clicking Help on the Menu Bar, clicking Index, and typing “License” in the Keyword field.
The License Fee is a one-time fee, and the Service Fee is renewable annually.

If Forgot Password doesn’t work:
- If you are the “Primary Administrator”, call 888-474-2252.
