Find Fund

Use Find Fund to search for Fund Codes in the system. Fund information is stored in the database by the fields completed in the Add - Fund process. When using the Find – Fundraising Fund Code form, you search for a desired Fund using information stored in the database via these fields. Search results viewed on the List – Fundraising Fund Code page display in columns, and each column of search results corresponds to a data field. Only a limited, pre-defined set of columns pertaining to Funds is available to you on the Find – Fundraising Fund Code page.

Find Fundraising Fund Code

  1. To search for Funds in the system, go to Modules>Fundraising>More...>Funds>Find Fund. The Find - Fundraising Fund Code page opens.
  2. For a more specific search, click the Advanced View check box. Expanded Boolean search options appear for each search criteria field. Use these search options to narrow your search results further.
  3. Click Go. A list of search results displays in the List - Fundraising Fund Code page. If only one result comes of the search, the profile page for that result opens.

Note: The more specific you make search criteria, the narrower your results will be. Searching for a Fund Name beginning with "F" will return more results than searching for a Fund Name beginning with "Full." Searching for all records with a Fund Namestarting with a "T" will produce more results than searching for Fund Namesstarting with a "T" with a specific Donor Category.

Find vs. Query

Most Finds and Queries in NetForum are run in CRM. The Find page is set up with a pre-defined set of columns (fields) versus a Query which allows you to select from any column in the search Table.

If you are not sure what you are looking for, use theNetForum wildcard character, the percent sign (%), to help you with your search. This is especially helpful when used in conjunction with the contains option on the Fund Name field.
