Sync Data

The first step before syncing your transactions to LGL is to map your campaigns and events in BetterUnite to their corresponding campaigns and events in LGL. This ensures that when the data is transferred, it will be directed to the exact location you need.

Once you have mapped the destination locations, and save the mapping, you will see the "sync" option on each mapped campaign row.

Click the "Sync" button and you will see all transactions within this BetterUnite campaign/event displayed for you to sync to LGL.

Note the various options below. The blue "Sync" button will appear on each transaction that can be sync'ed.  The green status button and the corresponding LGL gift id will be displayed on each transaction that was previously sync'ed.

 

Additional Options

Below are some additional options you can consider as you work through integrations over time.

Do not Sync

You can mark any transaction as "Do not sync" to mark them as not syncable. These may address scenarios where you may already have the information in LGL, or you just prefer not to sync this particular transaction based on it's attributes.

Reset Sync Status

If you need to re-sync a transaction, you can reset it's sync status and enable the sync option again

Filter Transactions and Exclusions

Note the date filters and status filters highlighted below, as well as the ability to mark $0 transactions as non-sync status in bulk.

 

Import Contacts from LGL

This function will allow you to import in bulk all of your LGL contacts into your BetterUnite account.
