In light of all of the progress in NXT, does anyone have insights on Insights? We like the Fundraising Dashboards, but we are quite hampered by the lack of fields available. For example, in our environment, with well over a thousand funds in use, we use Fund Attributes to be able to report (via Queries & Exports) on many different things in different dimensions. As Fund Type and Fund Category are single-value (and for good reason), we use Fund Attributes to report on Funds vertically as well as horizontally across our institution. Having Fund Attribs in Insights would enable a magnitude-level jump in what we could deliver on Dashboards to Leadership and our development officers.

    @Don Burrhus As of today, there is no way to use fund attributes on dashboards within NXT. You can do this using Power BI or Tableau. Alternatively, check out this post about Fund Attributes in the Idea Bank -

    Fundraising Dashboards were sadly absent from the latest product briefings, which I found surprising as I agree with you that there is so much that needs adding to make them useful! Please go to the Ideas Bankand vote for as many regarding Dashboards as apply!
