I need to pay attention to my own "proof it first" rule LOL! "Best use for a bookmark ever????? Bookmarking THIS PAGE! Find it here!"

Carrie Powell

Some of my bookmarks relate to a few key topics (like policies and creating a P&P Manual), but the area I have been following and adding regularly are figuring out workarounds to being able to apply pledge payments when donors set up recurring gifts. My bookmarks are here: https://community.blackbaud.com/profile/130642


But one post I found extremely helpful was about creating an individual gift summary in web view. Since we have some users who exclusively use web view, this was a great tip from Dariel Dixon. The discussion is here:
https://community.blackbaud.com/forums/viewtopic/143/53020

I went and created a gift summary by constituent in Report Builder right after reading that post!

It's the fun time to celebrate our Collaborator Club Members who completed February's Challenge!!

Which was to create and encourage others to check out your "Helpful Content Library": bookmark 1+ discussion, resource, blog, AND share your "Bookmarked content I found helpful" either as a response to a discussion or on a profile wall.


When I created this challenge, I did not realize how squirrelly it would be to confirm that responses or posts to profile walls included mentions of your Helpful Content Library. Therefore, please message me if you did this challenge and I left your name out. I will promptly trust you and give you points!
