Pro Tips & Best Practices

Resource Management Strategy:
  • Regularly review and update resource translations for accuracy
  • Use consistent terminology across all resource categories
  • Test resource changes in different language settings before finalizing
  • Keep resource names descriptive and easily recognizable
Template Optimization: Create templates for your most common event types to streamline the assignment process. Consider seasonal variations and special occasions when designing template collections.
Campaign Planning:
  • Use the preview feature to test campaign appearance before activation
  • Set clear start and end dates to avoid confusion
  • Order campaigns by priority or chronological sequence
  • Include detailed descriptions to help donors understand campaign purposes
Legacy System Integration: When enabling legacy system access, be aware that this affects balance sheet calculations throughout the application. Use date filtering to manage the volume of historical data included in reports.
Initial settings: The initial setup of the system include common resources, such as parshiyot, common pledge cards, events etc.
Multi-Language Considerations: If using multiple languages, ensure all resource items have appropriate translations. Missing translations may cause display issues in different language modes.
