When you create a gift commitment record, Fundraising automatically runs the relevant flow to trigger these actions based on the schedule that you defined for the flow.
- Identifies the next upcoming installment as per the current or next schedule and updates the Next Transaction Date and Next Transaction Amount fields
- For a recurring commitment, creates a gift transaction for the next upcoming installment in the schedule if the Create Recurring Schedule Transaction setting is selected.
- Updates the Current Schedule, Effective Period, and Effective Interval fields based on the current schedule
