Include soft credits in giving calculations like First, Largest, and Latest Transaction

I wouldn't mind this but I would need it to be on its own table. I don't want to see the donor's direct contribution + soft credits because this will "inflate" their giving despite us knowing they are to be credited for causing someone else to give. It would need to be listed separately, allowing the Bloomerang user to decide to combine them on their own. Not all us want the soft credit giving and direct contributions combined into one total.

Without this option, the latest transaction field is functionally useless for my organization and only causes confusion. I'm instructing staff to ignore it and only use summaries.

I continue to run into this issue as DAFs increase, and it makes some reporting useless (lifetime giving, for example). All transaction fields should have the option to include soft credits.

Completely agree. It's very confusing if I'm looking at a constituent's total giving for a given period, but the Latest Transaction column says they haven't given during that time.

Many donors give exclusively through DAFs as well. It's important to be able to see the soft credits under Latest / Largest Transaction for these donors.

I would say also add the ability to add it to the Total Revenue.

The ability to include Soft Credit is especially important as DAF gifts increase.
