'Add New Partner' generates 'Sort Name'

Post by Michael »

Would it be possible for DM to automatically create a 'Sort Name' after you add a new partner?

I find I often add partners and later figure out I forgot to add a 'Sort Name', and they show up on the main partners list without a Sort/Last Name.



(I was scratching my head trying to come up for things for you to do. :D )

Well, actually, the next major update is going to change the "sort name" thing.

Names will be entered <Title> <First Name> <Last Name> <Suffix>, and then the program will automatically figure out the sort name (which you can override if you want).

For organizations, it will have just a long <Name> field.

That actually will simplify a number of things.
