allow storing clients and households in NPSP object model #26

Open groundwired opened 9 years ago

groundwired commented 9 years ago

some food banks may want to use Contact and Household (or Account a la NPSP 3.0) to store clients

I think this would have to be optional, however, as it raises issues that food banks would have trouble managing without a dedicated sysadmin

As an intermediate step, we should add a field linking household to Acct and client to Contact. Then there can be an option to display this link on the page layout if desired. If clients use this, they could add the related list so users could create or open a food bank client/household record from an NPSP account or contact.

Evan! This is amazing! So to clarify current status - are the Clients current stored as a custom object to group them by a custom household? I think we could work around this just want to understand the data model. I'm not familiar with reviewing architecture in GitHub so if there's a way to do this would love to learn more. Thanks for building this - looks tremendous. Megan
