Hello everyone,
I’m in the process of creating a report that includes everything except a constituent’s blood type L. One of the components of one of the lists includes a constituent’s last gift. Is there a way I can really get only the last gift. This list gives me all gifts and I must sort by date, then delete all but the last gift. In normal circumstances, this would not be a problem, but I’m creating 60 lists for 6 reports. HELP!!!

Rosemary - have you looked at the Output Set Cookbook?

I think what you are looking for might be in there – or at least something that you can use as a starting point. Remember to try these out in Test before you use them in Live!
Cheers
Sandra

Hi Dale, I know I'm bringing up an old thread, but hoping you might still be able to help. I have an Output Set that includes "Contribution Last Cont Date" and "Contribution Recd @ Last Cont." Are these different than the ones you have listed? These do not seem to be including soft credits, which would be incredibly helpful. Thank you, Rosemary rosemarymiller@theparamount.net

Melanye,
I set up "last gift date" and "last gift amount" elements in output set builder. Ours pull data from a local view that includes soft credits but if you don't have one of those you could still just pull from t_contribution - it just won't show soft credits.
Its pretty easy to set up and I would be glad to share my setup, you would just have to modify it slightly.
You would need access to the tr_query_element system table. Dale
