I wonder if someone can help? I would like to attach mail to a constituent record in the actions section. This letter has already been sent out to a large group and is stored on my computer. Does anyone know how I can transfer this onto a group of constituents? Many thanks Orla.

We are getting files of 25K and 27K from an email append, and wondered if anyone knew of any limit to the number of rows that a batch can handle? I searched the knowledgebase and the import documentation and haven't found anything so I wanted to ask.

Thanks for the reply JoAnn! Sorry, I think my initial question had a poor choice of words. Not trying to update receipt info, rather just enter as we're batching. This has come up for us a few times as we're entering gifts into RE from our online solution vendor. The gifts are e-receipted automatically...

...if you need to change info, depending on exactly what, you can do most changes through a global change (assuming you have rights to use the function).

Is there a way to add event participants from a query or batch? I would like to do a gift batch for a long list of GIK's we received for an event, then be able to put the donors as participants. Some of the donors did not attend the event so I don't necessarily want them in the same category...

Is it possible to add/remove fields that show up on the default batch that comes up when processing netcommunity gifts? Thanks!

Any workarounds?
