Viewing a Prospect Profile

Contributor Relations provides a Prospect Profile page that presents a 360-degree view of a prospect's connections with your institution. The page contains a large amount of information as well as links to other pages in the system to enable you to find more detailed information. The data regions available on the page change, depending on whether the prospect is a person or an organization.

This section provides an overview of prospect profile views and discusses how to:

  • View a general prospect profile.

  • View prospect management details.

  • View prospect philanthropic interests.

Note: If prospect management security is active, the system may not display this page at all. Instead, the system displays messages in the Additional Information group box at the bottom of the Person Profile or Organization Profile page. These messages provide information about the amount and type of prospect information in the system, but reveal no details.

Each profile view contains several data regions with summary information. The table below lists each data region and the profile view that contains it:
