The system does not have specific features designed solely for fundraising, however there are certain features that can be used to help manage fundraising. This guide will look at the areas of the system that can be setup in relation to fundraising activities.

Managing Collection Tins

If you use volunteers,staff and shops to collect donations on behalf of the organisation you can look at the following options.

Using a project to manage the issue of the collection tin

Below is a basic process chart on issuing Collection Tins.

The first step would be creating a project. and making this available to staff, volunteers and organisation. Below is some example screen shots of the suggested project settings;

Give the project an appropriate name.

As above you may wish to allow recording of time and travel to monitor resources.

Select the record types for those who may take a Collection Tin.


Using Templates

Using templates will manage the process of issuing, returning and replacing tins. There is two templates that can be used, one for organisations and one for staff/volunteers.

Template to manage Collection Tins left with organisations.

The template has be set up as follows:

…and the stages on the template as follows:

The workflow of the stages have been setup as displayed by the following diagram:

When a request to site a new collection tin is received a new referral will be created on the Organisations record and initially this will be set to the default stage for 'New Request'. An outstanding action will appear on the staff member or volunteers action list that is to deliver the tin. From here the template will auto populate as each step is updated. If the tin is permanently returned the 'Ceased' stage will be selected closing the referral/process. In addition to the template an extension database can be used to record the values etc (explained in the next section)

Further option: you could create a new org/person record type called Collection Tins.  Each tin with serial number would be added as a record.  The project could then be set on the 'Types of orgs/people' tab to use an additional organisation (bottom section) with the record type 'Collection Tins' ticked.  The alternate name would be set as Collection Tin and you would want to tick the option 'Tick the box if you want the extra organisation/person to only be associated with 1 open referral at a time.'  In Operational Rules you could set history to be on the receiver and extra org and you will see the details on the Collection Tins history tab.
