Question 1

How can a gift officer determine if an acknowledgment letter was sent for a donation?



Answer : C

To determine if an acknowledgment letter was sent for a donation, the best approach is to check the 'Acknowledgement Status' picklist value on the Opportunity object. Here's how you can do it:

Navigate to the Opportunity Object:

Go to the App Launcher and find Opportunities.

Add the Acknowledgement Status Field:

Ensure that the 'Acknowledgement Status' field is included in the Opportunity page layout.

Navigate to Setup.

In the Object Manager, select Opportunity.

Go to Page Layouts and add the 'Acknowledgement Status' field to the relevant layout if it is not already there.

Review the Acknowledgement Status:

Open the Opportunity record for the donation in question.

Look for the 'Acknowledgement Status' field to see if it indicates that the acknowledgment letter has been sent.

Automate Tracking (Optional):

Use workflows or Process Builder to update the 'Acknowledgement Status' automatically when certain conditions are met, such as when a task related to sending an acknowledgment letter is marked complete.

Question 2

A local charity receives its income from recurring payments, The Recurring Donation object is used and contains a unique and manually entered reference number. This reference number should not be modified after creation. The finance department has requested that all child Opportunities also contain this unique reference number to make it easier to reconcile payments. How can the consultant achieve this?



Answer : A

To ensure that all child Opportunities contain the unique reference number from the Recurring Donation object and to prevent modifications after creation, follow these steps:

Create a Custom Text Field on the Opportunity Object:

Navigate to Setup.

In the Object Manager, select Opportunity.

Click on Fields & Relationships.

Create a new Text field (e.g., 'Recurring Donation Reference Number').

Use NPSP Recurring Donation Custom Field Mappings:

Navigate to NPSP Settings.

Under 'Donations', select 'Recurring Donations'.

Go to 'Field Mappings'.

Map the custom text field on the Recurring Donation object to the custom text field on the Opportunity object.

Ensure Field-Level Security:

Set the field-level security for the custom fields to ensure that they are only editable by the required profiles and read-only for others.

By following these steps, the unique reference number will be automatically populated and synchronized from the Recurring Donation object to all child Opportunities, and it will remain consistent for reconciliation purposes.

Question 7

A development associate using NPSP wants to add the Check/Reference Number on a report but does not see that field in the Report Builder. What should the consultant advise?



Answer : D

If the Check/Reference Number field is not visible in the report builder, the consultant should check if there is a custom field named 'Check/Reference Number' on the Payments object. Here's how to proceed:

Verify Custom Fields on Payments Object:

Navigate to Setup.

In the Object Manager, select 'Payment'.

Click on 'Fields & Relationships'.

Look for a custom field named 'Check/Reference Number'.

Ensure Field is Included in Report Type:

If the report type does not include Payments, create or use a report type that does.

Add Field to Report Layout:

In the Report Builder, ensure the 'Check/Reference Number' field is added to the report layout.

Drag and drop the field into the columns of your report.

By ensuring that the custom field is present on the Payments object and included in the report type, the development associate can successfully add the Check/Reference Number to their report.
