Advice - individuals with multiple organizations
August 29, 2016, 05:34:35 am
Hoping for a little advice on the best way to address the following situation.

- We have individuals with relationships to organizations.  Each individual can have multiple relationships to organizations; each organization can have multiple relationships to individuals. 

- Relationships have custom fields.

- Based on a query against the custom fields, the client wants to use tools (exports, mailing labels, etc.) which combine fields from both the individual and the organization.

For example: each person could be a delegate from many organizations; each organization could have many delegates.  We need to generate a mailing list of delegates which includes both the individual's name and email, and the organization's name and address.

Thoughts?

Hi Sam

pls ask this on StackExchange as that is where the Q+A stuff is happening - happy to try and answer it over there - will probably be recommending looking at doing it through Views - but I suggest you give a very clear example as to what you need eg John is a connected to Apple and Orange. Orange has John and Mary. What we need is .....
