Importacular

The utility supports the import of constituent records, gifts, actions, relationships, and other data types into Raiser's Edge NXT, Blackbaud's cloud-based fundraising and donor management platform. Source data can be provided in spreadsheet or CSV format, with field mapping configured by the user to match the structure of the destination database.

The tool includes validation features to identify formatting issues or duplicate records prior to import, and provides logging of successful and failed transactions for review. Importacular is used by development and advancement offices within schools, universities, and charitable organisations that maintain donor and alumni records in Raiser's Edge NXT.

Typical use cases include the migration of historical data from legacy systems, the bulk addition of records following events or campaigns, and the routine updating of constituent information from external lists. The utility is developed by Zeidman Development, a software company that produces a range of tools and add-ons for the Blackbaud product range.
