Considering making the move to ShelbyNext Giving soon? The new year is a great time to roll out new giving and mobile solutions if you have not already implemented ShelbyNext Giving.  

We’ve just made it easier to make this move for you and your donor with our Donor Import tool! 

The import can flex to meet your needs.  Import just your donors, your donors and their history, or donors, history and schedule of recurring gifts.

Shelby Arena 

Arena’s New Staff Tracking Feature

Arena’s new Staff feature is similar to Arena’s Family Relationships with expanded options.  It is primarily designed for Denominational Headquarters, allowing them to track the current staff of each of the reporting churches\parishes.  However, large churches might also find it helpful.  Staff tracking supports the following options: 

  1. Link to each reporting church or parish.  Large churches might use it to track staff by campus or department 
  2. Individual’s title. 
  3. Start date 
  4. End date 
  5. If you also have Shelby Financials’ Remittance application, then it links to and updates Alternate Contact 1 or Alternate Contact 2.  If you change an alternate contact from within Remittance, then the program also updates the Staff feature in Arena
