Use the prebuilt Membership Engagement Report

Use the Timeline on a record to see a Company or Person's activities. Use the filters to narrow down the results and see engagement by activity type.

Trying to find how engaged a particular Member or Member Company is? Look at the Events Column on the person or company's record. For an individual, it will show the events they've attended, and for a Company, it displays the events staff within the family tree registered for.

In the Attendees list of an event, use the gear to add columns such as Billing Address, First/Last name, Attendee Expiration dates, Open Balance, and custom fields. If you can't find a custom field here, update its visibility to be displayed on the Events.

Use the Filters to quickly find just the information you need - filter by registration types and payment status.

Custom field not displaying on the attendee list? Here's how to fix that.

Use a Novi Group to segment your member data by commonalities. The benefit of groups is that you can then use the Group to lock down content, send targeted marketing, and more.

Using the Open Dues Balance condition, you can create a Group of members with Open Dues Balances, then Send a Custom Email to those Members to encourage/remind them to pay.

Use the Gear to add columns to this list, including Billing & Shipping Addresses, Primary/Billing contacts, Auto-Pay, phone, and email.

Use the filters to segment the list by Type of Invoice, Recently Paid, and more.

Categorize your Custom Reports. Suggested categories include: Membership, Events, Government Affairs, and Novi Support reports, or, organize them by staff member name.

For reports where a condition will need to be updated before running, such as updating a date range, name it so you know you'll need to configure it: "Prompt Report" or "Change Dates"

No need to recreate the wheel! Do you need similar information to a custom report already created? Copy it, then update the conditions.

Trying to find a person? Use First Name = Is Not Null

If your membership type flows benefits from a company down to the staff, the staff's membership status is Inheriting.

For most reports, you'll want to use either Membership Status or Parent Member Status.
