What are Filters?

Defining Operators

Operators are found in the dropdown following your chosen filter. They can be used to refine your searches! 

• Note: Not every filter is paired back to the same set of operators.

In some filter and operator pairings, results are based on whether constituents have data matching the selected filter category. In others, all constituents are considered regardless of whether they have data matching the selected filter category. For example:

• When the Degree filter is used with the Is Not Set operator, results will only include constituents with education data that do not have a degree. 
• However, when the Capacity Score filter filter is used with the Is Not Set operator, results will include constituents with or without giving data who do not have a capacity score. 

If the number of returned filter results is lower than expected, this might be due to the first scenario outlined above! We recommend experimenting with different filter and operator combinations to understand their impact on your search results. Below, you will find definitions of our filter operator options.

• Is Between: Use when you want to include results for a numeric or date range (e.g., Last Gift Date is between 1/1/24 and 4/1/24). Additional operators that follow this logic include Engaged (from > to), Has Engaged (from > to), and Was (from > to).

• Is Not Between: Use when you want to exclude a specific range from your results (e.g., Last Gift Date is not between 1/1/24 and 4/1/24). Additional operators that follow this logic include Did Not Engage (from > to), Has Not Engaged (from > to), and Was Not (from > to).

• Equals: Use when you want your results to include a specific selection (e.g., Major equals ‘biology’). An additional operator that follows this logic includes Is.

• Does Not Equal: Use when you want your results to exclude a specific selection (e.g., Major does not equal ‘biology’). An additional operator that follows this logic includes Is Not.

• Is Set: Use this operator as a ‘yes’ to identify constituents that have data in the filter area (i.e., using the School Name filter with the Is Set operator will pull constituents that have school name data on file). 

• Is Not Set: Use this operator as a ‘no’ to identify constituents who do not have data in the filter area (i.e., using the Capacity Score filter with the Is Not Set operator will pull in both constituents who have no giving data on file and constituents who have giving data on file, but have no data in the Capacity Score field).

• Is In The Last: Use when you want to include results that fall within a specific window of time (e.g., Last Gift Date is in the last week). Additional operators that follow this logic include Engaged (in past), Has Engaged (in past), and Was (in past).

• Is Not In The Last: Use when you want to exclude results that fall within a specific window of time (e.g., Last Gift Date is not in the last week). Additional operators that follow this logic include Did Not Engage (in past), Has Not Engaged (in past), and Was Not (in past).

• Is Before: Use when you want to include results that fall before a specific date (e.g., Last Gift Date is before 7/1/23). 

• Is After: Use when you want to include results that fall after a specific date (e.g., Last Gift Date is after 7/1/23).

• Is On: Use when you want your results to include a specific date (e.g., Last Gift Date is on 7/1/23). 

• Is Not On: Use when you want your results to exclude a specific date (e.g., Last Gift Date is not on 7/1/23).

Filtering by: Location

Filtering your constituents by where they live and work is not a new concept. However, EverTrue is taking location filtering to the next level thanks to our enriched data from TrueView. 

Let's face it, keeping up-to-date addresses is a chore. Your constituents are constantly moving, and they do not always report their most up-to-date address with you! If you don't trust the location data coming from your database, you can search using data that we've gathered from reliable enrichment sources. This ensures that you are capturing any constituent that meets your location criteria no matter what.

The following filters contain enriched location data:

• Constituent City
• Constituent Country
• Constituent Metro Area
• Constituent State

Filtering by Location Use Cases

If you are searching for constituents in the city of Albany, navigate to your Constituents tab, click on Filters, and select one (or layer both!) of your two City location filters:

1. Location category > City 
2. General Enrichment Data category > Constituent City

Choose the Equals option from the second dropdown menu, and then search for and select “Albany” from the third dropdown menu.

We recommend applying both City location filters to your segmented search to ensure you catch everyone! Once you’re ready, click Apply Filters to view your narrowed results. You can follow these same steps with the other location filters.

Our Constituent Metro Area location filter can also help you find everyone in a specific city without relying on you to know the zip codes included in the metro area. We've done the heavy lifting for you!

Finding Location Insights within a Constituent Profile

Location information is located in a few different places on EverTrue constituent profiles.

• If the data is imported, you can find it on the Constituent Info tab of a profile under the Primary Contact Info section.

• Enriched location data can be found in the Enrichment tab of a profile under the Summary section in the upper-left corner. If we were not able to find any data on for this record, this section will be blank.

Filtering by: Map Radius Search

Quickly apply a radius search while browsing constituents to limit your results to a 1, 2, 5, 10, 25 or 50-mile area. To access this feature, navigate to your Constituents tab and click the Map icon in the upper-right corner. 

A radius can either be set around the center of your current map view or a particular pinpoint. Enter an address, city name, or even a point of interest, like Starbucks, to drop a pin on the map. Once you drop a pin or are centered on the location you're interested in searching, click the Radius icon near the top-right of the map and select the desired distance. Please note you must be reasonably zoomed in on the map for the radius search option to be available without dropping a pin. 

A radius will be applied to your map and listed as an additional filter to your search. Your search results will then be narrowed down to only constituents that are within that radius. Additionally, you can click the Address Type icon next to the Radius icon in the map view to apply different types of addresses (e.g. Home, Work) to your search. 

Because the radius search is applied as an additional filter, you can also switch from the map view back to the table view by clicking Table in the upper-right corner to dive further into your results and save your search. Please note radius search is not currently available in Lists or Trips & Meetings maps.

Filtering by: Giving Pattern

EverTrue makes it easy to see who your lapsed donors are. Our Giving Pattern filter puts a tag on each record based on their donation history so you don't have to figure it out yourself! Each record is tagged with one of four giving patterns.

• LYBUNT: This donor gave last year but not this year.
• SYBUNT: This donor gave a few years ago but not last year or this year.
• Current Year Donor: This donor gave during the current fiscal year.
• Non-Donor: This person never made a gift.

You can determine a constituent's Giving Pattern from two locations.

• Open the filter menu from your Constituents tab and input the Giving Pattern filter. Click Select Options... to filter down your constituents by pattern type. 

• You can also find the Giving Pattern on the Summary tab of a constituent record under Last Gift.

Calculating Giving Pattern

EverTrue relies on the accuracy of your imported data to calculate a constituent's giving pattern. We use the Last Gift Date field in tandem with your fiscal year cycle to determine what type of status the record should receive.

• LYBUNT occurs when last gift date is within one previous year from the fiscal year start date.
• SYBUNT occurs when there is a last gift date that occurs prior to one previous year from the fiscal year start date.
• Current Year Donor occurs when last gift date is greater than the fiscal year start date.
• Non-Donor occurs when there is no last gift date.
