Importing Donations |
Introduction
The Online Donation module allows donors to make donations directly through the Web.
In order for donors to make donations, a website must first be created and configured. The creation of the online donation website includes the configuration of the website home page as well as the creation of different Web forms. Each Web form is attached to a donation occasion, so that Internet users can subscribe online to the fundraising activities of the organization, or make a donation directly through the Web.
Moreover, when an Internet user makes a donation or subscribes to an activity from a Web form, ProDon automatically adds him or her to the database during the import of the donations. The import process allows you to import into ProDon all the data of the Web form completed by donors.
Information of the Donations to Import Window
It is possible to activate the display of a window notifying you of the donations to import when opening ProDon, you can then configure the frequency at which this window should appear while using ProDon. To activate and configure the frequency at which it should be displayed, see points E and F of the "Miscellaneous" section of the "Preferences" document.
This window automatically appears if new donations have been made on the IMakeAnOnlineDonation website or if they need to be imported.

Validation of Yellow Codes and Verification of Duplicates
After clicking on the " OK" button, the status of the imports, as well as the clients' become visible. | |
| |
A: It is the import status of the Web form. If the status is green, this means everything is in order, the form has been completed correctly. If the status is yellow, this means there is a warning. In that event, the warning is written at D and H. View the warning, then correct or validate it. If the status is red, this means there is an error. In that event, the error is written at E and I. When the status is red, contact Logilys. If the status is yellow and green, this means a warning has been validated. In that event, the warning is written at D and H. To validate a warning, double-click on the line of the form that contains the warning, follow the instructions of points H, I and J of this section. NOTE: To see a few examples of what can cause a yellow code, click here. |
B: It is the status of the client to import. If the client's status is "D", this means the client to be imported is a duplicate of a client in the database. Therefore, there will be no client file created. In that event, the client's UCN is written at C and a comment saying that a duplicate has been found for this client is written at F. If the client's status is "P", this means the client to be imported is a potential duplicate of a client in the database. It is recommended to validate whether it is a new client or a duplicate who should be merged by double-clicking on the line. In that event, a comment saying that a potential duplicate has been found is written at F. If the client's status is "N", this means the client to be imported is a new client. In that event, a new client file is created with all the information entered by the donor when he or she completed the Web form. |
C: If the donor was already part of the database, his or her UCN would be entered in this field. NOTE: A UCN is entered in this field when letter "D" is entered at B. |
D: When the status of a Web form is yellow, a warning is written in this field. NOTE: The warning of the selected line is also visible at H. |
E: When the status of a Web form is red, an error is written in this field. NOTE: The error of the selected line is also visible at I. |
F: When the client's status is either "D" or "P", a comment is written in this field. NOTE: The comment of the selected line is also visible at G. |
G: When the client's status is "D" or "P", a comment is written in this field. NOTE: The comment of the selected line is also visible at F. |
H: When the status of the Web form is yellow, a warning is automatically written in this field. NOTE: The warning of the selected line is also visible at D. |
I: When the status of the Web form is red, an error is entered in this field. NOTE: The error of the selected line is also visible at E. |
J: Click on the button to import the donation and client information once all yellow codes have been validated and duplicates checked. After clicking on the button, follow these instructions. |
The import status can be yellow for several reasons, here are the most frequent ones:
- There is missing information to search for duplicates.
- The expiration date of the credit card with which the donor made his or her donation will expire this month.
- The credit card with which the donor made his or her donation has expired.
Importing Donations
After clicking on the " OK" button, all donations to be imported disappear. | |
