HI,

We get few donors who pledge to multiple gifts, to multiple campaigns/funds - across multiple years.

If we enter these gifts in multiple lines (separated based on campaign/fund), we do not get the correct result for largest gift. 

So we are planning to enter these as one gift line - and split gifts. But we are not sure, if this causes any issues.

Any feedback would be helpful.

Thanks

At previous org, we avoided split gifts in RE and would enter as separate. Made for easy reporting.

Here split gifts are used all the time. It is much cleaner for metrics on # of gifts, largest gifts, etc. It just took some getting used to when pulling data/reporting. User just needs to pull split amount for reports. It has actually worked much  better than I expected. 

Another place for thoughts about split gifts is the BB community forums. Recurring topic.
