Filters

To refine the data that populates the graphs in Insights, use the filters at the top of the page. You can filter by Date, Account, Campaign, Designation, Source and Frequency.

Date Range

By default, Insights will display data from the last month. You can modify this date range by selecting specific dates on the calendar or by selecting options like Yesterday, This week, This year, etc. The selected dates are inclusive, running from 12:00 midnight on the selected start date through 11:59 pm on the selected end date, as per your organization’s default timezone.

Account

Accounts with subaccounts will see the additional option to filter by account. Specify whether you want to see data for All Accounts, a specific account, or a set of accounts using the multiselect checkboxes.

Campaign

This will allow you to filter to see data by Campaign(s). You can search for and select Campaigns by name, code, or Campaign ID. Archived campaigns will show up in gray with an archive box icon next to their name.

Designation

Filter by any of your organization’s Designations to see which causes are bringing in more donations. You can select or search for individual designations by name, code, or ID.

Source

By default, donations will be included from all sources. You can opt to only view data on donations from any one or combination of the following sources:

  • All sources
  • Checkout modal: see donations from the Checkout modal that opens as an overlay on your organization’s website.
  • Campaign Page: see donations from across all of your hosted Campaign Pages.
  • Virtual Terminal: see donations added manually through the Virtual Terminal.
  • P2P Fundraiser: see donations made via any P2P fundraiser.

  • One-time
  • Recurring: see all donations that are part of a recurring plan.
  • Recurring (first installments): this allows you to see donations that are the first installment of a new recurring plan.
  • Recurring (next installments): see donations that are continuing installments (2nd installment or later) of an existing recurring plan.

Graphs

Get instant visualizations of all your key fundraising data, from amounts raised, to donor channels, to payment methods and much more.

Raised

See how much you’ve raised in a specific time period, and compare it to another time frame.

The blue line shows how much was raised in the time period you chose in the filters at the top of the Insights view.

Use the Compared to dropdown options to compare the funds raised in your chosen time period to another time period. Funds raise in the time period you’re comparing to will appear as a gray line on the graph. You can compare to:

  • date picker - eg for comparing March of this year to October of last year.
  • previous period: the same period of time preceding your chosen time period. For example, if you chose the last 45 days in the date picker, you’ll see a gray comparison line showing the 45 days before those.
  • a month ago
  • a quarter ago
  • a year ago
  • no comparison

Day And Time
