How can I find out how much a
specific event has raised?
There are a couple of ways you can generate this data. We have found
that the most popular route for users is the one below:
- Go to Fundraising
and Donations and then click on Event Fundraising
- Now click on Create
a detailed report and select the "Quick
Reports" option on the next screen.
- You now need to select I
only want to include fundraising pages 'with
an event date' and enter the dates of your event (enter
the date one or two days before and after the event in case any fundraisers
used the wrong date).
- You can now select the specific columns
you would like to appear in your report, and then click on 'continue' to create the report. If you change the selection for the default view,
you will be prompted to save your changes so you need not edit this
every time you create a report.
- You now have the option of two report formats, depending on how you
would like the data to appear, and you can then download your report.
- If you have more than one event taking place on the same date, you
may need to filter some of the data once the file has downloaded.
- For help on using the reports in MS Excel, you can visit their excellent
online help section at http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/FX010858001033.aspx
- You can also create a report for a specific
event by going through the Advanced Report process
if you are confident all your supporters have select the same "official
event"
