Hi Funraise friends! This month, we've got a few small time-saving updates, some housekeeping items, and a lot of work under the hood to keep up Funraise's exceptional user experience.
What's New
Added data to Transactions CSV export
We've added a few highly-requested data fields to the Transaction CSV export. New fields include: In-Kind Description
, Dedication Type
, Dedication Message
.
Giving Page Preview
When editing a Giving Page, you can now click, "Preview page" to view your page's content. Improve your workflow by previewing your pages without leaving Funraise.
Onboarding/Setup improvements
We've updated the onboarding experience for new users. Most of these changes will not impact our current customers except for a new gateway alert—anytime your account does not have a valid gateway connection, we'll provide a clear warning banner in the platform so that your team can resolve the issue.
Housekeeping
IMPORTANT: Organizations using both Funraise's Salesforce integration and Events & Ticketing feature, please complete this required manual edit.
If you are using both Funraise's Salesforce integration and Funraise's Events & Ticketing feature, you will need to make an easy change to your Salesforce configuration to ensure Registrations
are always created as Contacts
.
Feature Sunsetting
In an effort to deliver the world's best fundraising platform, we sometimes have to say goodbye to features or integrations that aren't up to par or that have superior alternatives. We want to let you know about a few items that have an end-of-life date set. If you have any questions about these changes, contact your Success Manager.
