The Gift Band Migration Viewport illustrates the migration between gift bands over the selected fiscal year and previous fiscal year for retained donors. The selected fiscal year period is displayed on the horizontal axis of the table and the previous fiscal year is displayed on the vertical axis of the table. 

The gift bands represent the sum of credited giving of the selected measurement in each period.  For example, looking at the sample Viewport screenshot below, if you see 2 donors in the row of <$1K along the left side (the first row) and the column of $25K-$49.99K along the top (the fifth column from the left), then 2 constituents moved from donating less than $1,000 in the previous fiscal year (FY 2012) to between $25,000 and $49,999 in the selected fiscal year (FY 2013). The $0 column along the top (The first and leftmost column) indicates donors in various gift bands from the previous fiscal year that have not donated in the selected fiscal year.

The Fiscal Year can be changed using the drop down at the top of the tab. This drop down will reload all Viewports in the tab with the selected fiscal year.

The donor Measurement can be changed using the drop down at the top of the Viewport. Any changes made to the measurement selection are stored, so the Viewport will display your last selection the next time you log in.

Each of the numbers in the table are links that will generate a browser tab that allows you to see the list of the constituent records and their profiles.
