What the demo shows

Advancement staff check endowed fund spending against donor intent and draft impact reports

Agents read every gift agreement, typewritten scans included, into cited terms; sort every ledger charge into Fits, Question or Does not fit and draft the reversal; find funds sitting on payout and propose eligible uses from requests already waiting; draft the release the state act allows when a restriction can no longer be met; and write each donor's impact report with every figure tied to its source. The fund steward confirms, and the Endowment Accountant and the Director of Stewardship each approve.
