Short answer

How can I audit my GivingFuel donations using AI?

Your AI pulls transaction lists and filters them by date or status to find discrepancies. You'll get a clear view of successful charges versus refunds or failed attempts.

Audit outcomes

Where your data lands.

The AI organizes your transaction data into these specific categories.

STATUS

Identify failed payments

The AI isolates transactions that didn't go through. You'll see exactly which donors need follow-up.

REFUNDS

Track returned funds

Your agent finds all refund events within a specific window. This helps you match your bank statements to GivingFuel records.

RECONCILE

Verify total revenue

By pulling all successful transactions for a period, the AI calculates your actual intake. It makes month-end reporting much easier.

HUMAN

Resolve discrepancies

The AI flags the mismatches. You decide how to handle the specific donor communications or manual adjustments.

The workflow

What your AI does when the request arrives.

Instead of you clicking through dashboards, your agent executes these steps to gather the data you need.

  1. Fetch transaction history

    The agent pulls the raw list of all financial activity from your account.

    list_financial_transactions

  2. Isolate specific statuses

    The AI narrows down the list to only show things like refunds or failed charges.

    filter_orders_by_status

  3. Apply date ranges

    You can tell the AI to only look at donations from last Tuesday or the entire month of December.

    filter_orders_by_date

  4. Summarize findings

    The agent compiles the filtered data into a readable summary of your audit results.

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI change a transaction status?

    No. The AI can only read and filter transaction data. You must log in to GivingFuel to manually change any order statuses.

  • 02

    Can the AI issue refunds?

    No. The AI identifies which transactions were refunded, but it cannot trigger a refund or move money.

  • 03

    Does the AI see my donor's credit card numbers?

    No. The AI only accesses the transaction data provided by the GivingFuel API, which does not include full sensitive payment details.

  • 04

    Can I audit by a specific donor's name?

    The current tools allow you to filter by status and date. You can ask the AI to look through the list for a specific name once the data is pulled.

  • 05

    How does the AI know which transactions are successful?

    It uses the status field in the transaction data to distinguish between successful, failed, and refunded orders.
