Enabling "In Honor" and "In Memory" Dedications for Soapbox Donations

updated

If your site has Salesforce integration enabled to connect it to your Salesforce instance, you can enable "In Honor" and "In Memory" of Dedications by visitors. If either or both is enabled, a checkbox will appear to visitors just above the payment form allowing them to identify this as a dedication.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Soapbox Donations does not send any message to the individual identified in the dedication. This information is gathered to be used by your team to notify the individual to whom the gift was a tribute as you wish, in keeping with the wishes of the donor. You may choose to setup a workflow in Salesforce which automatically emails the individual on behalf of whom the gift was made - or you may wish to manually review each dedication to ensure quality control prior to emailing and mailing the honoree manually.
