Using the Flows View

This view allows you to drag and drop contacts from one phase of the MPD process to another very easily (see screenshot below). MPDX will even prompt you at times to record a task to help remind you of what the next step is for that particular partner. For those people who partner with you financially, you can also quickly and easily record their commitment info from this view as well so you can see God’s faithfulness in reaching your monthly goal.

Once you move a contact into the Monthly or Special Partner columns, do the following steps to record their donation commitment:

Step One: Click on the Contact Name hyperlink (a contact record tile should slide out from the right of the screen).
Step Two: Scroll down the Contact record until you see the Commitment field.
Step Three: Enter the commitment amount.
Step Four: Enter the frequency of the commitment (Monthly, Annual) in the Frequency field.
