Bring back sold_amount option for tax receipts.
Foundant recently removed the option to populate tax receipts with the sale amount of stock (soldamount). Our donors expect to see two numbers on their acknowledgements for public securities - the value of the gift (average of the high and low values on the date of receipt) and the amount that actually goes into their fund (sold amount). Having the soldamount field removed the manual work for our team in adding this value to our tax receipts and reduced the margin of error. Please bring it back!

100% agree here :) This was information being actively used by many Foundations and then removed. As our busiest time of year approaches, it would be nice to have this informational field added back. Thanks!

This should be an option for the foundation as they are ultimately liable and without this being pulled in there is more room for error by manually entering the amount.

This would be great. It would allow us to easily share the gift value and the proceeds value using merge fields instead of having to hard-key figures into the letter.
