Answers.Body: <p>You could hack the civicrm_participant_payment table which links a contribution to a participant.
  You could also create an extension to link a contribution to a particpant from the user interface. This way you make it easier for the event manager to this. </p>

Answers.Text: Thanks, Jaap. I'll look into it. I'm not really a programmer, just a dabbler, but I'd love a useful programming project to learn some more stuff with.

Body: <p>We fairly often have events where a registrant pays for part of their fee, and another contact (sometimes also a participant) pays the rest. I'd like to record the payment for the Contact and soft credit it to the appropriate participant's event fee. </p>
  
  <p>Any chance this is possible? I'd be open to manipulating the database, if it's not possible in the civi interface.</p>

  You could hack the civicrm\_participant\_payment table which links a contribution to a participant.
  You could also create an extension to link a contribution to a particpant from the user interface. This way you make it easier for the event manager to this.
