I've had a bash at the #Advanced Mapping​ Recurring Donations Recipe. This brings in the Recurring Donations and the first Opportunity is created by the NPSP Data Import.
Recurring Donations Recipe
Attach a Recurring Donation to Contact1
To link a Recurring Donation to Contact1, follow the steps below.
- Prepare Salesforce for the Recurring Donations Object Group, and create these fields on the NPSP Data Import object:
- Recurring Donations Imported (lookup)
- Recurring Donations Import Status (text)
- Add at all the fields to map on the NPSP Data Import object. Make sure the field type matches the type on the Recurring Donations Object, such as:
- Recurring Donations Type (Text)
- In NPSP Settings, create a new Object Group for Recurring Donations 1 with the following information:
- Group Name: Recurring Donations
- Object Name: Recurring Donations
- Is Child/Parent: Child
- Of This Mapping Group: Contact 1
- Through This Field: Contact
- Link to Field: Recurring Donations Imported
- Import Status: Recurring Donations Import Status
- Add Field Mappings for the Recurring Donations Object Group:
- Select Recurring Donations Type (Recurring_Donations_Type__c), and map it to Recurring Donations Type (npsp__Recurring_Donations_Type__c)
- Repeat for all fields to be mapped.
Notes:
- You will need to create another Object Group and mapping if you wish to import to Account1.
- I would recommend setting a value and mapping for Recurring Donation Name field else it will default to the Recurring Donation ID.
I also have screenshots if they would be helpful.
