Connection Score

The connection score is a way for affiliates to build a model score or rating that reflects the strength of relationships between the institution and the constituent.  This can allow prioritization of prospects within portfolios, targeted mailings and solicitations, etc.

There are currently 4 versions of the connection score, details below showing which point total corresponds to which level, and the criteria for calculating point totals.  The scores in Atlas are only updated if there is a change in level.
