GIFT_AMOUNT (Lookup only)

By default, the Donation Creator content item displays a single, empty Gift Amount field. However, you also have the option to display an array of gift amounts from which the user can select, or to display a single Gift Amount field that is pre-populated with a gift amount of your choice. You set these options through the GIFT_AMOUNT table and can customize the Gift Amount display for any iMIS distribution code. For more information about using the Donation Creator, see Content items for donation features.

To display a gift array or a pre-populated gift amount in the Donation Creator content item

  1. From iMIS Desktop, go to Customers > Set up tables > General lookup/validation.
  2. If a GIFT_AMOUNT table does not already exist, select New Table to create it.
  3. Select the GIFT_AMOUNT table from the list and click New.
  4. In the Code field, enter the distribution code for which you want to customize the display. For example, BLDG.
  5. The values you enter in the Description field determine what is displayed on the donation webpage:
    • To display an array of gift amounts, enter a comma-separated list of gift values that you want to appear in the list. For example, entering 50,100,200,500 results in a radio list of those values displayed on the page. To preselect an option, precede the number with an asterisk: 15,*25,75. 
    • Note: The gift array always displays an option for the user to select Other and enter any amount.

    • To display a single Gift Amount field with a pre-populated gift amount, enter a single amount. For example, 25.
  6. Save.
