Fundraising Setup

Use Source Codes to determine the effectiveness of mailings (both email and direct mail). You can also use source codes to determine which mailings drove the most Event registrations, which mailings drive the most Membership purchases (or renewals), and which mailings drive the most Fundraising donations. Add a fundraising source code when you want to track which fundraising incentives drive the most donations. A fundraising source code also populates other fields based on the source code context details you enter here.

To add a Fundraising Source Code, use the following steps:

  1. Follow the path above.
  2. Click the Add button. The Add–Source Code page opens.
  3. Fill in the fields for the Source section as described in the table below:

    end dateOptionalEnter or select a date that this code becomes invalid.
  4. Choose which fields to associate with your source code in the drop-down lists in the field column.
