Re: Possible to void a previously cleared check?
As long as that check has not been reconciled, you can change the status to outstanding and then void the check. If the check has been reconciled in FE, I don't believe you can void it.
Re: What is your favorite part of your job?
My favourite thing is the grateful face I get when I help someone with a list or a task they were struggling with, and I can offer a solution. Makes all the challenging days worth it!
Re: BBCON Value for Altru Users
I attended bbcon in 2019 and there were some altru specific sessions, arts & culture specific sessions plus meet-ups. The most useful part was the Blackbaud University Day, which was the day before the conference. There were actual classes that taught a lot of Altru how-tos. I'm not sure if they are having that again, but I would recommend it if they do.

Re: Exporting if donor made a Tribute gift
You can also run a gift query to find only the tribute gifts during the timeframe you want. Under the main Gift node, scroll down to find Tribute Gift which is probably the last field. Add your date parameters and gift types as filters, and include the constituent ID in your output. That will make it very easy to do a VLOOKUP in Excel to add the tribute gift indicator to your main list.
This implies, of course, that you have the Tribute module and every tribute gift is connected appropriately.

It didn't cost us any more to have these options on BBMS, and then used in various donation forms technology.
Re: NXT Add In- Adaptive Card (close after entering info)
@Kevin Fletcher this is now completely resolved when Blackbaud introduced the new webrequest action feature.
I create the AIAC (All-Inclusive Adaptive Card) template utilizing this, so everything is more seamless and transition smoothly from initial input, submit, to final response message from submit.
Re: Selling Merchandise through RE NXT
I think consistency is important like Dariel said. If you already enter transaction purchase into RE as gift, then RE NXT Event online registration form makes perfect sense.
If for any reason you are not going to make the purchase as gift, the transaction exists in RE NXT webview batches, which you do not have to approval (not approved/committed batch = gifts are "not really" on the constituent record. There isn't a way to delete the not approved gift batch. (I do see a delete gift batch SKY API call that MAY be useable but never tried it).
