How To Add Report Highlights To Your Action Network Group
What Are Report Highlights?
Report Highlights are a way to show a summary count of reports from your Action Network Group. You'll see the number of Activists, the Report name, and the last time the Report was refreshed.
This allows you to see a summary of the Reports you choose, without having to go into individual Reports, and can be used to highlight useful information such as recently joined members.
How To Set Up Report Highlights
1. From your Group Management page click on the Add Highlights button
2. You'll be taken to a page with six drop down boxes. Click on any of them.
3. From the list that appears find and click on the report you want to add.
4. Repeat this for any additional reports you want to add, and click the button marked SAVE.
5. You'll be taken back to your Group Management Page, where you'll now be able to see a summary of the reports you've added.
How To Make Changes
If you want to add, remove, or change which reports are shown simply move your mouse cursor over the white area with the report highlights displayed and an Edit Highlights link will appear underneath. Click this link and you'll be taken back to the report selection dropdowns.
What Sort Of Reports Should I Choose To Highlight?
This is a decision for each Group to make independently, but could be used to show the number of members per Membership Type, your new members, the number of donors you have, or those who haven't opened any emails in a while. If you can report on it you can add it to your Highlights.
