Simple Graph - possible?

Ryan Moore

So as the newbie, finalized my first appeal - direct mail is out, funds are coming in, and … I can see the total… but can I see how much was coming in over time (i.e. I like to see when we've ‘crested’ or how it's trending over time).

I'm in Database View (we're transitioning to NXT soon, but the temp environment doesn't have this data).

Thoughts?

I'd been playing in the ‘dashboard’ but it can show total, or via calendar years…

@Ryan Moore If you go to the Appeal record, you can see some summary options where you can see a very basic graph showing your progress towards your goal for that Appeal.

@Ryan Moore Alternatively, there are some rudamentary graphs in the Gift Detail and Summary Report (under Financial Reports).

thanks @Christine Robertson

so nothing beyond the rudimentary (i.e. can i see what the totals by day etc…)

@Ryan Moore Graph options in DB view are fairly limited. They were dated when I started in RE in 2005 and I truthfully haven't spent much time on them as a result. You'll have much better functionality (as it sounds like you already know!) in webview.

@Ryan Moore that would be nice! The only option is to export data and do a line chart, unfortunately.

There will be a way to more easily access a graph in webview, for what it's worth!
