# Raiser's Edge NXT integration set up

## This contains all the useful information to help you easily join your Raiser's Edge NXT org with Emma and start mapping data from one to the other.

**A.** ***Connecting Emma to your Raiser's Edge NXT Org***

Before you begin you will need to check the following:

1\. Your Blackbaud Environment role as only an organisation administrator is allowed to connect the application.  
2\. Your browser is set to allow pop-ups from https://system.emma-live.com, this is required to request authorisation from Blackbaud when connecting the application. You can check and set this in your browser settings under **Privacy & Security**.

Follow the steps below to initiate your integration with Raiser's Edge NXT:

- Go to **Accounts \> Integrations** section on your Emma menu on the lefthand side
- Click **Add Integration**
- Select **Raiser's Edge NXT** and then click **Create**
- Select **Connect to** **Raiser's Edge NXT** this will open a pop-up for you to authorise the application in your Blackbaud account. 
    - Note: If you don't see a pop-up check your browser settings as mentioned in point 2 above.
- Once connected make it **Active** and **Save**

**B) Suggested order of mapping**

This recommended order of mapping helps to ensure the ID's are correctly sync'd between RE NXT and Emma.   
The mapping is setup with Actions that are linked to specific Events in your EMMA account.

Click the **Add** button on the Actions row and select the relevant **Action Type** and **Event**, make it **Active** and then click **Add** to save.

1\. Send Guest Details to Raisers Edge NXT will export to Constituents.  
2\. Send Ticket Details to Raisers Edge NXT will export to Gifts.  
3\. Send Pledge Details to Raisers Edge NXT will export to Gifts.  
4\. Send Bid Details to Raisers Edge NXT will export to Gifts.

**C) Field Mappings**

Click the **Edit** icon to update the Action and view the Field Mappings. The system will automatically populate the required fields for each action that is added. You can then update or add to this list of fields. 

- The **Emma Field** is where the data is stored for the record in the Emma system.
- The **Remote Field** is where the data will be exported in the RE NXT system.

**D) Field Conversions**

When viewing an Action, click the **Edit** icon to update the field mapping and view the Conversions.  
Click the **Add** button below the Conversions table and set the Conversion Logic to one of the following:

- Value Empty
- Value Equals
- Value Not Empty
- Value Not Equal To

The **Input Value** is the what the Conversion Logic will be checking for.  
The **Output Value** is what will be exported to RE NXT if the Conversion Logic matches the Input Value.  
 

**E) Default Data**

Click the **Edit** icon to update the Action and view the Default Data.  
Similar to Field Mappings, except there is no EMMA Field as the **Default Value** will allow you to specify what will always be exported to the RE NXT system for the **Remote Field**.

You will need to have the RE NXT ID's, if applicable, for your RE NXT Campaign, Fund, Appeal, Type and Packages on hand.  
 

**F) Preventing duplicate Constituents**

If Constituents already exist in RE NXT and have not been exported from EMMA, the integration will first check if the Guest email matches any Constituents to update before creating a new Constituents.  
 

**G) What is a Daily Cron**

If the **Daily Cron** is enabled under the **Automation Type**, the RE NXT Action will be run every day at 08h00 AM (GMT) to ensure the data between EMMA and RE NXT remains up to date.

This is only required where data may be changing or new records are added after the initial sync, for example, new guests and activity being added to EMMA that need to be exported to RE NXT so that the constituent and gift records are kept up to date.  
 

**H) Testing the mapping**

On the RE NXT Action, you can use the following settings to limit/filter what will be exported from Emma.

- **Guest** is used to filter records for a specific guest/constituent.
- **Transaction Start Date/Time** and **Transaction End Date/Time** is used to filter records from, between and up to a certain date and time.
- **Row Limit** is used to set the amount of rows(number of records) to send to RE NXT. Setting this Row Limit to a low number allows you to test the mapping, ensuring there are no errors and the data is correctly exported to RE NXT.
