About This Automation

Impact reporting requires manual data collection from multiple sources, consolidation into a master spreadsheet, and calculation of outcome metrics. Manual transcription and formula errors delay reports and reduce data accuracy.

Automation pulls program and donor data directly from source systems, consolidates records, calculates all metrics, and generates a formatted report with narrative sections and charts. Reports are ready for review within hours instead of weeks.

Key features
Extract program activity and outcome data automatically from all source systems
Merge program and donor records by program ID without manual transcription
Calculate outcome percentages, cost per participant, and impact ratios using predefined formulas
Generate formatted reports with narrative sections, metrics, and charts applied to your template
Route completed drafts to director for review and approval
Distribute final reports to donors, board members, and stakeholders via email

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Reporting Deadline Triggeredtrigger

A scheduled date or manual request initiates the outcome report generation workflow. The system checks for new or updated data in source systems.

2. Fetch Program Data

The automation platform queries bases and retrieves all program activity, participant, and outcome records. Data is filtered and standardized automatically.

3. Retrieve Donor Data

The workflow pulls donor contact records, grant amounts, and funding source information using API calls. Records are matched to programs by ID.

4. Consolidate and Calculate Outcomes

The automation processes the combined data, calculates outcome percentages, cost per participant, and impact ratios using predefined formulas. Results are stored in a structured format.

5. Generate Report

The automation creates a new document, populates it with calculated metrics and narrative sections, and formats it according to the organization's template.

6. Notify Director for Review

An email is sent to the director with a link to the draft report. The director reviews and approves or requests revisions via comments.

7. Distribute Final Report

Once approved, the report is converted to PDF and automatically sent to all stakeholders on the distribution list. A confirmation log is created.
