Lists/Reports

Lists/Reports

All Reports in the Admire Rebuild start off being created as a List.  When saved the List becomes a Report which includes the filters, the column order and any other changes made to the List.

• To create a List/Report, go to the Data Center .

• Click on .

• A drop down menu will appear with the List types.

• Select one to get started.

List Types

To decide which type of List you should choose you need to ask yourself:  "What do I want to see a list of records on?".  

• Accounts = list of people, no financials.

• Pledges = list of donations pledges.

• Payments = list of actual money received.

• Contact Logs = list of notes and activity logs stored on accounts.

• Entities = list of Entities.

Filters

After you choose which List Type you need the Lists screen opens up.

The filter bar is set on the left while the data shows on the right.

Most lists start off with a blank filter, however by some List Types there is a default filter, we assume you need, already in place.  Such filters and all subsequent filters are easy to remove.

Adding a Condition

• Once you select a List Type, all records of that list type will display.  

• A condition/filter is something that limits and restricts.  Adding a condition will narrow down your list.

• Select to start filtering.  

• Scroll through the options or use the search bar to find the filter you need.

• Instead of symbols < > =, the filter uses words.  

• Use the drop-down arrow to expand and select the one you need.

  

• A field that has a list to choose from like Campaign, will have a drop-down list you can select from.  Use to expand.

• Choose “is one of” to allow selecting multiple options on a field like Campaign.  Your selections will appear in the box above.

  

  • In the example above, two campaigns are selected: Dinner 2023 & General Donation 2023.  They display in the box above.

• Click to add another condition to the one you already made. This is like adding an “and” to your filter.

• Select to update the List/Report based on the conditions you entered.

• A summary of all conditions will appear on the top of your list of data.  You can easily remove any of them by click the X in that box.

  

Amazing Admire!

The data displayed on your report is LIVE!  Refresh your browser to update and include recently entered information.  

Additionally, you can click on any data and it will open up!  Accounts will open up on a new tab in your browser.

Adding a Group

• This is adding on an alternate set of conditions to your list/report, it is like choosing “or” on your filter.

• Click on .  The Or will appear, and the box will expand to allow you to create the filter.

Adding Columns to Your List/Report

You may want to add additional fields as columns to your list/report.

• Select the gear located on the top-right of the list/report column names.

  

• All available field columns are listed. Scroll to find the one you want or use the search bar to find it.

• Select next to each column to toggle off or on.  (Dark purple = on, greyed out = off.)

• To change the order of the columns:

  • Select at the end of each column turned on.

  • Drag it to the desired location to put in the order you wish.

  • When you see a dark purple line where you want it to go, drop it there.

• Select when done.

Adjusting Your Columns

• You can change the order of the columns by dragging the column itself and dropping it where you want it to be.

• The List/Report is generally sorted by the first column shown, ascending order.  

  • Select the arrow that displays when you hover over the column title to change the sort to descending or vice versa.

• Adjust the width of the columns by hovering between the column names and using the Resize Cursor that appears.

Customizing Columns Viewed on Mobile Device

When viewing a list/report on a mobile device the custom columns will not display or disappear as they do on a standard computer.  The default display will never change.

• You can view the custom column changes by selecting the down arrow next to each record and expanding it.

• The rest of the display will remain the same even if these columns are removed.

• However, when taking the same report and opening it up on a regular computer it will display according to the customization.

Viewing Columns on Download/Export

• Only the columns displayed on your screen will download/export.  

• If you want additional columns on your download/export you must toggle them on to display on the screen and then download/export the report.  

• Conversely, if you want to see less columns then toggle them off first and then download/export.

• When downloading as a PDF only the columns that fit on the page (with landscape orientation) will appear.
