Overview of NA30UPD
Throughout the DDI system, there are screens that allow you to add memos to certain records, such as Name/Address, Accounts, Investments, Loans and Gifts. Memos are notes added to a record. They can be sorted by memo code and category, and you can even attach documents and other files.
The first step in adding memos to any record is to make sure that you have set up the memo codes and categories. Once you have done so, you are ready to begin adding memos to records.
For the purposes of this document, we are going to add a memo to constituent. Once you reach the Memo screen - regardless of what kind of record you are working with - the functions are all the same. When you first view the Memo screen, it will look something like this:
To add a new memo, click the New button on the toolbar. The memo fields will now activate:
You have the following options:
Field | Description |
---|---|
Pop up from | If you wish to have the memo "pop up" when the record is accessed - for example, when the constituent record is viewed - you can enter a date when the pop up should begin. You can type the date in a mm/dd/yyyy format, or click the calendar icon to select the date |
thru | Enter the ending date for the pop up, if you wish to have it stop appearing after a certain time. Enter the date in a mm/dd/yyyy format, or click the calendar icon to select the date |
Memo code | Select the memo code that you wish to assign to this memo. You can type in the code or click the list icon to select from a list of active memo codes in the system |

Category | Select the memo category you wish to assign to this memo by clicking the drop down and selecting from a list of active categories in the system |
Text box | The area to the right of the fields is the text box, where you can type your memo |
Once you have finished entering your memo, click Save. You will now note that the Attachment icons become active:
Click the New Attachment icon. The Add Attachment box will appear:
Field | Description |

Description | Enter a brief description of the file |
Private | If this memo should only be viewable by you and those with appropriate security, you can check the Private box |
When you have finished entering the information, click OK. Your memo and attachment are now added, and will appear something like this:
Note that you now have additional file attachment icons:
