Pull Daily Gift Amount Total into Flow

Amanda Holt

I am using the gift notification flow provided by Blackbaud and would like to include total the amount given.

For example, if three gifts show up in the flow ($100, $200, $300), I want to show we received $600 in gifts.

Might someone point me toward the way to code this?

Hi Amanda , are you wanting an aggregate amount of donations by the a particular donor or, for example, all gifts given on a particular day??

I answered a question similar to this recently. I'll find it and post it here. Hopefully it's what you need.

@Amanda Holt Okay, here's how i produced it:

I initialized a float variable. Used the List Gift action and populated just the Constituent ID. Then I incremented the variable with the gift amount. You should be able to then use the stored value of the variable. Hope that helps!

Let me know if those are too blurry and I'll send them as attachments.

It worked! I made two adjustments:

• In the List Gifts, I used an NXT List instead of single constituent ID. It then summed the total amount of gifts in that list.
• Instead of using the “compose” at the end, I used “format number” so it would display it as currency (example $1,234.00).

Thank you!
