What Type of Data can I Create Custom Exports For?

Note: This is our first iteration of Custom Exports! If you'd like to see Custom Exports made available for other types of data, let us know in our Product Portal!

There are five types of data that you can set Export Templates for:

• Contacts - Choose Contact Profile information like First Name, Last Name and Phone Number
• Transactions - Choose Donation or Revenue information like Donor Name, Amount and Date
• Membership Subscriptions - Choose Membership Subscription information like Member Name, Membership Plan Name, Status and Fee
• Form Responses - Form information like the Contact's Name, Email Address and Form Questions
• Volunteer Records - Volunteer Activity information like the Contact's Name, the Hours Volunteered and the Dates

Can I Save Custom Exports from an Export?

Yes! While exporting the above mentioned data types, you can also Save your exports on the fly. Here's an example of how it looks from a Fundraising Report.

Navigate to a Report > Click on the Data Tab > Click on Export

Tick the "Save columns as a new export template" option > Select the Columns of data that you need today (these will be saved to this new Custom Export in your Personal Settings, too!) > Give your Custom Export a Name > Click Next

This will now be available as a Custom Export in your Personal Exports!
