Enhancements to view possible duplicates by confidence ratings

We’ve made updates to improve the way you view possible duplicates by confidence ratings:

  • From a list of possible duplicates, you can now select to include matches with a zero confidence rating as the minimum match likelihood. To include possible duplicates with a zero confidence rating, select Filters, and choose the zero confidence option under Minimum match likelihood.

  • From Constituents, Data Health, Possible duplicates, you can now select to view possible duplicates with only a high confidence rating in addition to viewing all possible duplicates, including those with a zero confidence rating.

Note: If you select to view only possible duplicates with higher confidence ratings, only possible duplicates with a confidence level of 1, 2, and 3 appear in the list.

Add the total amount and number of offline gifts to the goal meter

Now you can add gifts received via cash or check to a goal meter in website components to reflect the total amount received for a giving event. From a goal meter in website components, under Source, enter the total number and amount received for offline gifts. For more information, see Goal Meter.



Search and link to organization records for individual gifts

To eliminate the need to create duplicate individual records when an organization record already exists, you can now search for and link transactions to existing organization records when the gift is entered as an individual gift. For more information, see Online Data Review.



Access feature areas from left hand navigation (for more of you)

Note: We’re releasing these updates in waves instead of deploying everything at once. When waves complete, we'll update the help content to reflect those changes.



To make it easier to access features with more intuitive navigation, the menu has moved to the left side of screen and some features have been moved to new areas for accessibility.
