With insights, you can pair attributes with measures to break down totals and compare categorical data. For starters in
Raiser's Edge NXT, try these "recipes" — based on ideas from the
SKY Reporting EAP Community, with measures and attributes as the main ingredients — to compare the goals of your campaigns, funds, and appeals to their giving.
In
Raiser's Edge NXT, you can quickly compare giving toward campaigns, funds, and appeals toward their set goals.
- At the top of the record of a campaign, fund, or appeal, you can view how much it raised toward its goal and its overall progress, as a percentage.
- In Fundraising, Analyze, you can quickly compare giving toward your 20 top-grossing active campaigns, funds, and appeals to their goals under Overview or Campaigns, Funds, or Appeals.
To compare giving toward specific campaigns, funds, or appeals toward their goals, you can build similar comparisons in
