 +The Donor feature was designed for the purposes of tracking and reporting on stock that has been funded by a donor.  However, the feature can be used for more than just tracking donors.  For example, In many countries that use mSupply, most medical supplies are supplied free-of-charge to the health facility by a government agency.  But if the government agency has not supplied stock, the facility might decide to procure the stock 'privately'.  The facility management will often want to keep track and report on this privately procured stock.  The donor feature can be used for this purpose.  The 'donor' name for this purpose might be called ''Privately procured''.
