Gift-notification configuration requires imported gift data

For the established (legacy) Volunteer Management portal. These steps differ from the newer Volunteer Management interface. Administrator controls require the appropriate school or volunteer-management permissions.

In the established VMS, open Settings → Gift Configuration → Automated Gift Notifications. Volunteer and Volunteer Manager notifications have separate configuration entries. If Configure displays a prerequisite notice requiring a Detailed Gifts or Gift Summaries file, arrange the supported gift-data import first; clicking Configure again does not create the missing data.

Gift Configuration determines which imported gift types, allocations and anonymous-giving data feed a feature. Volunteer role permissions separately determine who can see particular giving information. Check both when diagnosing a missing notification or apparent difference between administrator and volunteer totals. Other Gift Configuration areas separately control Constituent Record, Administrator Dashboard and Volunteer Dashboard. Only the prerequisite state was live; the later notification editor was unavailable in this test account.
