The fund list
See every fund your organisation manages, with what each has to distribute, has paid and has left, totalled per currency.
Last updated
Plan > Funds lists every fund your organisation manages. Each row shows how much the fund has
to distribute, how much it has paid and how much it has left.
This appears only when it is turned on for your organisation. It needs both the Payments and Funds
modules, and you need the Can access Payments permission. Labels that name Fund use your
organisation's own term if you've renamed it.
What each row shows
The list opens sorted by Name, with these columns in this order:
External ID: the fund's ID in your other systems, if it has one.Name. Select it to open the fund's record.Distribution Amount: what the fund has to distribute.Paid Amount: what has been paid from it. A refund you have received comes off it; a voided payment never counts.Available Amount: theDistribution Amountless thePaid Amount.Anonymous:Yeswhen the fund's donor is kept anonymous.Anonymous Name: the name shown in place of the donor's.Tags.
Each amount is in the fund's own currency, shown with its code, such as AUD 10,000.00 or
NZD 3,000.00.
Your own fund columns
Any custom fund field marked Display in list appears after Tags, in the order the fields are
set up, headed by the field's own label. A fund with no value for that field shows a blank cell.
If you can add funds, select Settings at the top of the list to set up these fields and choose
which are columns. See Fund settings and custom fields.
Totals
The last row totals Distribution Amount, Paid Amount and Available Amount over every fund that
matches your search and filters, not only the page you are on. When your funds are in more than one
currency, each column shows one total per currency, such as AUD 15,000.00 · NZD 3,000.00. Amounts
in different currencies are never added together.

Import from a file
If you can add funds, the Import menu is beside New Fund. Import Funds updates amounts and can
add funds from a CSV file, and Import valuations records market values from one. Either way you see
every row before anything changes. See
Import fund amounts and valuations.
This page uses Backed's default terms, such as Funding Round and Application Template. An organisation may rename them, so read each as your organisation's own term if you've renamed it.
