• See how giving has changed per year per donor over time.
• See who has not given in a particular year.
• Quickly see the highest donors for each year.
• Quickly see the total amount given to your church for a particular year.
• Easily see a donor's total donations for a particular year.

Access The Year-Over-Year Report 

Go to the Reports page in the portal and click the Start Report button in the Year-Over-Year Giving report tile. 

Default Report Set-up

Once you enter the report page, you will note that the results table is already pre-populated with your real-time results based on the pre-set (and changeable) values in the Parameters sidebar.

The Report Parameters article provides more info on the various sections and options in the sidebar. There, you will see how easy it is to change the preselected report parameters and see customized results with a click of a button!

For the Year-Over-Year report, the three primary parameters are Who, Funds, and Years. In its default state, the report will initially display All Profiles of people and organizations (if the Organizations product is enabled) that have given to tax-deductible Funds for up to three calendar years, where giving data is available, including this year.

• Who: all profiles       
• Funds: all tax-deductible funds        
• Years: up to the last 3 years where giving data is available

Report Results

*Note: The report table will show the last three years of giving side by side for comparison. If less than three years are available, then only one or two will show.

In the above report, there is both a Total row and Total column, which allow you to easily see the sum total of previous donations across your entire organization, along with the total donations for any given donor over the designated period.

If you scroll over to the right in the table, you will also see demographic columns as follows:

• Email
• Phone
• Address
• City
• State
• Postal Code
• Tax ID (Organization only)
• Contact Note (Organization only)
