Add Gifts To Batch
Why this helps
Donation details arrive through different channels, making it easy to retype information or overlook an invalid email before batching gifts.
- Reduce manual entry when preparing gifts for processing.
- Catch email addresses Abstract identifies as invalid before adding gifts.
- Keep submitted donation details together in an existing open batch.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Abstract and Blackbaud once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what to do from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, say to check submitted donor emails with Abstract and add eligible donation details to the named open Blackbaud gift batch.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and the channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real donation example and confirm the gift appears in the intended batch.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create or close a Blackbaud batch?
No. This workflow uses the Add Gifts To Batch action for an existing open batch. It does not create or close batches.
What information should the webhook send?
Include the donation and donor details needed for the gift, plus the existing batch identifier or other information Notis needs to identify the batch. Confirm the required details in your Blackbaud setup.
What happens if Abstract flags an email?
Tell Notis in the instruction to hold that donation for review rather than add it. Abstract validates email addresses; it does not establish that a person is the donor.
