Challenges and Workarounds during implementation 

Challenge: Manage regional annual goals vs. account forecast, pledges and payments

Solution: de-normalize all data objects into one flat dataset for reporting

 

Challenge: Data Migration from multiple data sources

Solution: Using Demand Tools to upset information in multiple steps.  Invest hundreds of hours for quality QA

 

Challenge: Issue receipts to payors while acknowledging the actual donor

Solution: Create a Payor account object with master detail relationship to donor account.
When used in payment record, automate receipts via process builder

 

Challenge: Support multiple country based accounting processes: some which local currency
management and USD exchange rates, some without

Solution: managing two sets of fields for local pledge/payment amounts as well as multicurrency
with USD as the main currency. Overriding vanilla exchange information when receiving
both local and USD amounts from accounting software around the world.

 

Challenge: process assimilation with the fundraisers

Solution: invest a lot in joint and individual training hours. Provide almost real time support to
