Adding new designations on our donation forms

Adam Lemmon

Question from OMRF:

We are trying to separate one research designation field into two fields and are not sure how to do this.  Is this even possible?  (Specifically, on our form we have a list of difference diseases to which one can designate their donation.  "Neurosciences and Diseases of Aging" is the field we'd like to split into two fields but can't find a way.)

Answer: 

In OMRF's case your site is using Convio Designated Giving, so when you navigate to Fundraising >> Donation Management   you will see a tab there called "Designated Giving".

You will need to add a new designee and you will need to edit the existing designee.   When you go to the designated giving tab you will be able to create a new designee.   You will also be able to click "edit" next to the existing designee to make the needed changes.  After you have done this, you will then need to go to your donation form and update the "Designated Giving Levels" filed on the donation form to make sure that it is including your new designee.
