Wants Electronic Statement Only

This Condition, located on the Contributions category tab in Search Builder, allows you to find people by the Electronic Only setting on their Giving > Statement tab. When it’s checked, the person will generate their own contribution statement online and does not need a mailed statement.

Note

You must have the Finance role to get results from this Condition. Without it, the search returns 0 people and does not show an error.

Caution

There can be three values for this flag: True, False, or NULL.

If you select Equal True, in the results, you will get just those whose flag is checked. This will be those that want to generate their own statement.

If you select Equal False, you will get those who have previously checked True, and then unchecked the box.

Neither of these will return the NULLS - that is, those whose flag has not ever been set, one way or another.

Using NotEqual True gets all False and NULL flags.

You can use NotEqual False and return all those set to True as well as the NULLS. However, there really is no good use case for that.

Use Case

To email people when year-end statements are ready, combine this Condition Equal True with a contribution Condition that finds last year’s givers.
