What's New In Raiser's Edge NXT The Week of June 2

Preview styles for merge fields in email messages. From the email designer, you can now preview the format and font styles you apply to merge fields for all messages including new, existing, and copied versions. Previously, you could only view styles for merge fields in sent messages.

Explore the new Blackbaud Marketplace (for some). The new Blackbaud Marketplace features applications by Blackbaud and Blackbaud partners that enable you to extend the functionality of your Blackbaud solutions. All Blackbaud environment users with a Blackbaud ID can access the new Blackbaud Marketplace to browse what’s available. Admins can still access the Applications page from within Raiser's Edge NXT to manage connections, including manually adding apps that aren’t in the Blackbaud Marketplace. Also, the Applications page will now only show apps that are compatible with Raiser's Edge NXT.

Quickly navigate to the Blackbaud Marketplace from the Solutions menu in the upper left of your Blackbaud-ID supported solutions.

Key features include:

• It’s easier to discover solutions that will benefit your organization.

• Filters help you find which applications are compatible with your Blackbaud solutions.

• Enhanced security ensures only admins can connect or disconnect applications.

• See at a glance which applications are connected to your Blackbaud environment.

• Get updates when new applications are added!

Ready to learn more about an application? In the Blackbaud Marketplace, select an application card to see key highlights, support links, and contact the application owner for more information.

Amend a recurring gift's amount or payment information (for more of you). To help you accommodate donors' requests to make changes to their recurring giving, you can now amend a recurring gift in the web view! Amendments let you add and track changes to a recurring gift’s details over its lifetime. When you amend a gift, details about the change, such as any previous values and amended values, appear in the recurring gift’s history.

You can amend a recurring gift from its record:

• To upgrade or downgrade the gift, select Amend gift amount from the top of the record, then increase or decrease the amount.

• To edit the payment information for the gift, select Amend under Payment information, then enter the updated information.

When you amend a gift, details about the change, such as any previous values and amended values, appear in the recurring gift’s history. Any changes you make apply to future installments; recurring gift payments that have already been processed remain unchanged. For more information, see Recurring Gift Amendments.

Note: In future releases, you’ll be able to add other types of amendments through the web view, such as to update a recurring gift's payment schedule.
