The donors and the transactions are kept seperate on purpose so that the transaction data will not get corrupted by random editing and/or adding of transactions to avoid the chance of "spoofing" a transaction by someone other than yourself. The side effect of doing this is that the donors that you add get credit for what they have donated, but the goal amount will not rise accordingly. To make it rise accordingly you must add the amount the donor gave to that goal by simply editing the goal itself and doing a little math on your part.
Again I have done this on purpose to avoid have a problem with unscrupulous people injecting (or attempting to) transactions in the system without notification of such activity. I know it's a pain, but in my view a little work is worth the effort.
1) Add / edit user giving the user their total amount-->Save User
2) Take that amount and add it to the goal with simple math
3) Take the total that you come up with and then edit the goal using that new total as the goal's total-->Save goal
All done, user gets credit and system sees the additional fundage.
