In this scenario we have downloaded a spreadsheet with Fundraiser information and another spreadsheet with the Donor information and used this information to create one spreadsheet. There is some manipulation with importing this information.
When you import the same Fundraisers and Donors thankQ will automatically match them unless there is something different about their information in which case if they are under the suspect duplicate column you will need to manually mark them as a match and revalidate.
The fundraiser has a Profile for the Fundraiser ID which must be setup under Lookup Values. You can also set the Data Import to dedupe by Profiles:
Not all the information that has been downloaded will want to be imported into thankQ.
Extra fields/columns will need to be added for the Profile Name and also the Source Code which must be created before payments can be accepted into thankQ.
Combine the Fundraiser and Donor information so their Contact information is under the same headings. There will more than likely be less Fundraisers and you just need their contact details and fundraiser id.
Example of a Donor Export:
