Community Maintenance - Household tab

Use the Household tab to:

  • create a new address record
  • view the community members living at the same address
  • move selected community members to another address.

The following community members share the same household address identifier:

  • a couple (Primary and Spouse)
  • current students share the address of the term contact
  • future students share the address of the primary contact.

When students are transferred to past students, they are:

  • assigned a new household address identifier even though they can still physically live at the same address as the rest of the household
  • not displayed on the same Household tab as current students, future students and their family.

This means that you do not have to manually move the student when they move residence in the future.
