Campaigns

Campaigns General Layout

The Campaigns page shows all campaigns - both current and previous ones. It shows the title, goal, whether it is a match fund and if so the match amount, the start and end date, whether there is a public page for payments online and if so a link, and the option to delete or edit a campaign. To add a campaign, click on Add Campaign on the upper right.

Adding/Editing a Campaign

This section is used to set up the campaigns's goal, teams, etc. To add a campaign, click on Add Campaign on the upper right. To edit a campaign, click on the edit icon located to the right of the campaign.

  • Title: The title of the campaign is entered here.
  • Goal: The campaign goal is entered here.
  • Match Fund: Select whether the campaign is a match fund.
  • Match Amount: Select how many times the campaign is being matched. (If a campaign branch is set up to list transactions, it will list the transactions multiplied by the amount of times that the campaign is being matched.)
  • Public: If this is selected, a public link will be given where donations will be able to be given.
  • Label: In order for the system to know what teams there are, a contact for each team needs to be added. A label is entered here, under which each contact is another team. Enter a team ID as the first name of the team and as the custom field A. In another field, enter the goal for this team.
  • Add: Each team can have sub teams. The original teams are referred to as parent teams and sub teams are referred to as the children. A contact (team) of the original label is selected, and then a label is selected. In that label, a group of teams is entered as contacts in the same way as was done with the parent teams. When someone donates to a subteam, the system adds the donation to both the parent and the child team.
