Hi all --
Wondering if any of y'all have already encountered (and hopefully solved!) the issue I'm currently grappling with. I'm in the process of building Tessitura out for an upcoming Capital Campaign. We use a multi-year model for our Capital Campaigns and denote any restrictions using designations per our Finance department. We are still collecting on pledges from our prior campaign through FY26.
Here's the problem...
This future Campaign will begin before the end of FY26 (so before we finish collecting on gifts booked to the prior Campaign). For reporting purposes and for simplicity's sake, I'd like to avoid creating new Funds to go with this new Campaign. But because the Capital Campaign Funds I'd like to use are already associated with an active campaign from our previous Campaign, I'm not able to assign those Funds to the new campaigns.
Is there ANYTHING that I simply haven't thought about? Appreciate any ideas but also am prepared to swallow a dose of reality. Many thanks in advance!

We used to create a new capital campaign every year that was tied to the fiscal year. However, in 2019 we switched to having a single capital campaign that does not have a fiscal year associated with it. We have infrequent capital campaigns but occasionally get capital gifts. So, this may not work for your situation.
