This is essential for fundraising teams: Raiser’s Edge NXT should include a risk‑adjusted amount on Opportunities that automatically applies the Likelihood to the Expected Amount, so teams can see a realistic view of projected revenue.
Example:
Expected Amount = $100,000
Likelihood = 60%
Risk‑Adjusted Amount = $60,000
Right now, most teams know their pipeline totals are overstated, which is why they end up exporting data and doing this math in spreadsheets. That makes forecasting harder and reduces confidence in what NXT is telling us.
Having a built‑in risk‑adjusted value would:
Give a more realistic picture of projected revenue
Make year‑end and campaign forecasting more trustworthy
Help managers compare portfolios based on what’s likely to close, not just what looks good on paper
Cut down on offline workarounds and shadow reporting
Ideally, this would be system‑calculated and available in lists, dashboards, and reports, with rollups across portfolios and campaigns. This feels like a foundational capability for accurate pipeline insight in NXT.
