Householding

Contents

Householding allows you to create relationships between supporter records, as well as set a supporter as a primary contact for a household. Setting relationships can either be done via import or in the Lookup Supporters module. If you would like to use this feature you will need to enable it in your Account Preferences.

Watch our quick introductory video to householding below.
