Highest Previous Contribution or Most Recent Contribution
February 07, 2011, 03:30:01 pm
For years I've used a combination of Highest Previous Contribution (hpc) and Most Recent Contribution (mrc) date/amount, along with number of contributions and a few other factors, to segment donors and personalize ask amounts.  I'm in the midst of a transfer from a commercial database to civiCRM and I can't see a way to get this info and use it to select, tag and communicate with donors.  Is this possible?  Can civCRM be configured to do this?  Thanks.

you can potentially do this via a custom search and/or custom report. Instructions for writing both of these are on our wiki. You will need php and mysql skills to do so.

If you do it, please do publish your code so others can benefit
