Introduction for reviewers

See also:

If you want to view general Giving reports but not all the details, the Giving reviewer role is perfect because you can view the dashboard and pledge campaigns. This guide provides an overview of that access.

Tip

If you cannot log in, follow the steps in the Log in to Planning Center article.

Dashboard

The Giving dashboard allows you to review high-level donation information from the selected campus and within the specified date range. Once the campus and date range are set, you can view the total amount and number of donations by days, weeks, months, and years.

The dashboard also includes the number of donors, donations, labels, payment sources, types of giving (direct from donor or other non-deductible sources), payment channels, and funds used in the filtered date range.

If needed, you can print the Dashboard report by selecting Export at the top of the page, followed by Print View.

Pledge campaigns

You can view any current, upcoming, or concluded pledge campaigns.

  • Restore or fully delete a canceled account
