Screen Element	Description
Donor Class Control
Donor Class Timeframe	Drop-down. Select the timeframe in which you determine if a constituent is a current or past donor. For example, Calendar Year (January through December), Fiscal Year, or Last 12 Months. Values in the drop-down are populated based on the fixed codes defined for the FND "DONOR_TIMEFRAME" system type. If you change this after the system has applied the statuses, the current values for constituents will be changed and may become invalid.
Major Donor Threshold Amount	Text box. The gift amount required to be considered a “Major Donor.” If you change this after the system has applied the statuses, the current values for constituents will be changed and may become invalid.
Include Pledges in Donor Class Calculation	Checkbox. When checked, pledges are included when determining Donor Giving classification.

When unchecked, indicates that the amount will be calculated solely on actual payments received.
Include Soft Credits in Donor Class Calculation	Checkbox. When checked, soft credits are included when determining Donor Giving classification. For example, an individual may receive soft credit for a corporation’s donation.
