Instrumentl’s Raiser's Edge NXT integration provides a one-way sync of data from Instrumentl to RENXT. This streamlines your workflow by reducing duplicate data entry, enriching funder constituent records, and giving your organization’s broader fundraising team deeper insights directly within RENXT.
This article focuses on mapping fields between Instrumentl and RENXT when configuring your integration. Please refer to our main Raiser's NXT Integration Guide first for more information on overall capabilities and full setup instructions.
➡️ Mappable Fields
Many Instrumentl Funder, Opportunity, and Task fields can be mapped to corresponding Raiser's Edge NXT fields. See the Instrumentl to RENXT field name mapping tables below to verify which fields can be synced.
Custom Fields
Custom Fields in Instrumentl can be mapped to Custom Fields in Raiser’s Edge, provided they are the same data type, though there are some parameters to keep in mind:
🚫 The RENXT Integration does not support the following field types:
Y/N (Yes/No)
# Number
Picklists (dropdown with multiple selections)
🚫 RENXT does not support line breaks in Custom Fields, so any line breaks in Instrumentl’s long-text fields won’t persist when synced.
🚫 RENXT does not support emojis 🙃. Any emojis in Instrumentl Custom Fields will render as ❓ in RENXT.
✅ The RENXT integration does support text, date and currency fields.
