The purpose of these custom fields is to help you track information about the Gifts and Pledges you are tracking in AwardSpring.
How to Create a Custom Gift Field
To create a custom gift field head to the Settings tab in the main navigation menu, and select the Donor Profiles subtab.
Then click on Custom Fields (Giving).
You'll have the option to choose between a Text field and a Date field.
Once you select a field type, you'll be prompted to give it a name and adjust for it to be displayed for Gifts or Pledges, or both.
Below in the example we chose a Text field to create a Fund Code to track for Gifts. However, you can also choose to track it for Pledges only, or both.
This is how the custom field appears under Gifts.
