h1. Exporting Salsa for CiviCRM
When logged in as a Manager, "Query/Export" will give you a full export of contact data. There's a "Select My Entire List" button. There's also an "include my deleted supporters" checkbox, which you may want to check (but probably not). This will NOT get you groups/tags.
h2. Exporting Data not on the Contact Entity
You need to get to custom reports. If you have the Reports tab, great; if not, you can get there by clicking "Supporter Management" tab, then "Built-in Reports", then "Clone and Edit" a report, then select "List Your Custom Reports". Or go straight here: https://hq-org.salsalabs.com/dia/hq/reports/list.jsp?table=report
*Important*: When selecting foreign keys (e.g. "Supporter KEY") from the Columns tab, be sure to give a custom label. This will cause the key to display correctly, instead of giving a link to the supporter's record.
h3. Groups
* Create a new report.
* Select the type of report you would like to create: Standard report
* Use "Advanced Object Chooser".
* Report "Supporter Groups", then "Groups". Press "Save".
* Select the "Columns" tab and select your columns. I like just "Supporter Key" and "Group Name".
* In Conditions, "Group Name" should be "Not Empty".
* Save, Run the report.
* Click the "Export" link.
h3. Tags
* Create a new report.
* Select the type of report you would like to create: Standard report
* Use "Advanced Object Chooser".
* Report on "Tags", then "Tags Data", then "Database Table". Press "Save".
* Select the "Columns" tab and select your columns. I like just "Tag" and "Table Key".
** "Table Key" is the Supporter Key. It's similar to "entity_id" in CiviCRM.
* In "Conditions", "Table Name" should equal "supporter".
* Add another condition: "Tag.Tag" is "Not Empty".
* Save, Run the report.
* Click the "Export" link.
h3. Events
As above, but no conditions, and report on the "Event" table. If you're only importing legacy events, this is a good list of easy fields to import:
Event KEY
Reference Name
Event Name
Description
Start
End
Deadline
Maximum Attendees
h3. Participants
As above. Report on tables "Supporter Event", then "Event". Note that there are a lot of tables that _look_ like "Supporter Event", like "Supporterevent" and "Supporter Events"!
Note that if you're matching on a unique field from "Events", you can just export "Supporter Event" and not the "Event" table.
Here are the fields I exported and what I matched them to:
Supporter KEY external_identifier
Event KEY event_key
Status status
Type role
Date Created register_date
h3. Recurring Donations
Export on table "Recurring Donation". Here's the field mapping:
Recurring Donation Key -> trxn_id
Supporter Key -> external_identifier
Transaction date -> create_date
Start Date -> start_date
RPREF -> invoice_id
RESULT (exclude 37, they're tests)
Amount -> amount
Pay Period -> use to remap to frequency_unit and frequency_interval
TERM -> installments
Status(?)
Note that in Salsa, there's no clear-cut way to tell whether a contact's recurring donation is still working or not - "Status" isn't a complete indicator, and thus doesn't cleanly map into Civi.
h3. Donations
It's important to link the recurring donations to the donations when exporting if you need to identify the first recurring donation (e.g. to generate thank-you letters if it's a first donation and recurring).
Under "Conditions", filter by "Supporter KEY is not empty" - when Salsa imports legacy data into their system, sometimes they don't do such a hot job.
Export on table "Donation" linked to table "Donate Page". You'll want these fields (more or less):
Donation.donation KEY(donation)
Donation.supporter KEY(donation)
donate_page.Reference_Name
Donation.Date_Entered
Donation.Transaction Date(donation)
Donation.amount(donation)
Donation.Transaction Type(donation)
Donation.RESULT(donation)
Donation.Tracking Code(donation)
Donation.Designation Code(donation)
Donation.In Honor Name(donation)
Donation.In Honor Email(donation)
Donation.In Honor Address(donation)
Recurring donation.Transaction Date(recurring_donation)
Donation.Order_Info
h3. Actions
Salsa has a separate table for actions, making them structurally comparable to Civi Events. A good match in Civi is the Survey entity, which is used for petitions.
Export as above. Report on table "Action".
Condition: "Reference Name" is not empty.
*Note*: "Description" is likely to contain HTML that breaks the export. I find it helpful to export it as the last column.
h3. Supporter_Actions
Export "action" and "supporter_action" and "supporter_action_comment" in that order.
Condition: supporter_key IS NOT NULL
Here's the fields I grabbed with their mapping:
supporter_action.supporter_key
action.Reference Name
supporter_action.Date_Created
supporter_action_comment.Comment details
h3. Letter to the Editor
This isn't a feature CiviCRM has, but it maps reasonably well to an activity when migrating.
* Create a new report.
* Select the type of report you would like to create: Standard report
* Use "Advanced Object Chooser".
* Report "Letter Supporter", then "Letter". Press "Save".
* Select the "Columns" tab and select your columns:
> Date_Created -> activity_date_time
> supporter_KEY -> external_identifier
> person_media_ID? -> seems important - but I can't find a matching table, and this data doesn't seem to be accessible from Salsa.
> Letter_Subject -> details (concatenated)
> Letter_Content -> details
> Reference_Name -> subject
* Save, Run the report.
* Click the "Export" link.
h3. Chapters
* Create a new report.
* Select the type of report you would like to create: Standard report
* Use "Advanced Object Chooser".
* Report "Supporter Chapter", then "Chapter". Press "Save".
* Select the "Columns" tab and select your columns. I like just "Supporter KEY" and "Chapter.Name".
* In Conditions, "Chapter.Name" should be "Not Empty".
* Save, Run the report.
* Click the "Export" link.
h3. Receive_Email field
Here's a TSV of how to interpret the "Receive_Email" field.
