"turn-around", account and campaign specific QR codes

I believe this is a GREAT idea that would be useful to ALL your clients (and would differentiate eTapestry among your competition). This is a problem common to all your customers these days ... and it needs to be solved

I would like to be able to create, in eTapestry a fund raising campaign for my organization that creates a record for each account with a specific dollar amount (proposed) like most organizations do (we currently keep this information in a spreadsheet for each campaign and want this in eTapestry so that we know what we asked the constituent for during the last campaign). The ability to create this record should be through the user interface and through an import (csv).


Once that record exists, we would like to have an eTapestry URL that EXTENDS what we current have. What we current get is a generic URL (literally: https://app.etapestry.com/onlineforms/AlbanyProMusica/donateonline.html). What we would like is a URL that would pre-populate both the campaign ID and the account number that links directly to the account's campaign record (requested donation) stated above. Example: https://app.etapestry.com/onlineforms/AlbanyProMusica/donateonline.html&account=123456&campaign=2020-10 ... the additional data (bold/underlined) would be interpreted by eTapestry and PRE-POPULATE the form to the specific account (no more duplicate issues!) and the default amount.


Then ... we want eTapestry to be able to generate unique QR codes that contain the exact fully qualified URL above (that contains both the account number and the campaign ID as shown in the URL above. We then would produce emails AND/OR letters to constituents that contain the QR Code. The QR code ultimately allows the user to point his/her camera at the document or screen and VERY easily complete their donation. No more need to (mis)type a URL, no more need for us to manually resolve duplicates, the suggested donation is carried into the webpage AND we can now use the data to know and analyze our constituents and their willingness to give the recommended amount year after year. I have attached a QR Code that conforms to the fully qualified URL above (try it!).
