How-to: Log A-Thon Activity and Calculate Progress

Enter A-Thon activity during your A-Thon or after it ends.

Whenever a Campaign Organizer or Participant logs activity progress on a RallyUp A-Thon, the amount raised will update automatically wherever it’s displayed on the Campaign Page, driving up excitement, friendly competition, and donations:

RallyUp’s system also uses this information to automatically calculate how much to charge each donor for their per-unit pledges when the A-Thon ends.

RallyUp offers two options for updating A-Thon activity progress. You can periodically log activity progress manually while the A-Thon is live or import activity results when the A-Thon ends.

Log Progress Manually

Campaign Organizers can log Participants’ progress on their behalf:

1. Select Campaigns from the left menu.
2. If you have chosen a list view, click on the Campaign title. If you have chosen a grid view, click on the Campaign image.
3. Under CAMPAIGN MANAGEMENT, select Enter Activity Results.
4. Click on ACTIONS in the upper right corner of the screen, then select Add Activity:

5. Enter the activity details, then select either Save & Close or Save & Add Another:

Participants can also log their own progress: How-to: Log A-Thon or Peer-to-Peer Activity as a Participant.

Import Results

Campaign Organizers can import activity results when the A-Thon is finished. We recommend downloading the spreadsheet before the A-Thon starts and using it to log progress as the A-Thon proceeds:

1. Select Campaigns from the left menu.
2. If you have chosen a list view, click on the Campaign title. If you have chosen a grid view, click on the Campaign image.
3. Under CAMPAIGN MANAGEMENT, select Enter Activity Results.
4. Click on ACTIONS in the upper right corner of the screen, then select Import Activity Results:

5. Click on the link to download the Activity Results Upload Template:

6. Fill out the spreadsheet. Here are some tips to help you out:

• All columns are required.
• Enter the First Name, Last Name, and Activity Name (e.g., Goal) exactly as it appears in the Campaign.
• Activity Date column entries should be formatted as MM/DD/YYYY.
• Units Completed column entries should be formatted as a whole number greater than zero (e.g., 10). Decimal numbers won’t work.

7. Save your spreadsheet as a .csv file. Most spreadsheet programs (Google Sheets, Microsoft Excel, etc.) will allow you to do this.
8. Click on Select file to upload your spreadsheet:
