I’d like to create a list of donors from our annual campaign this year who increased their gifts in a substantial way. I’ve tried it a couple of different ways- each time I end up with different lists. What would be the best way to do this? Thanks!

I think the answer will depend on what “a substantial way” means and what time period you want to compare. To just last year, or multiple years, and how much of an increase? 

This might be too simplistic for what you need to see, but what about running the Contribution Report for the time period in question, and then using Edit Columns to add the Highest Contribution Amount and Highest Contribution Date?

It looks like you could potentially also use Custom Calculated Fields for this purpose, just from a glance at the instructions:

Thanks Sally- I’ll try that.
