Creating list in NetCommunity--Add Query not working

Sandra Larkin

I am trying to create a list in BBNC from a query in Raiser's Edge. When I reach the "Add Query" step, BBNC can't find any of my queries--in fact, it does not seem to be finding any queries except those that have already been created in BBNC.  What am I missing?

Hi Sandra,


Thank you for reaching out! Queries not appearing in the dialog box is normally caused by by of two items:

1. The query is not a Constituent query. Blackbaud NetCommunity will interact only with Constituent queries. If we open the query in The Raiser's Edge then navigate to File > Properties, we should see Query Type: Constituent. If the query is Individual or any other type, it will need to be recreated as a Constituent based query.
2. The query uses Ask operators. Queries that use this option will not appear for use in Blackbaud NetCommunity.

Please let me know if you have any questions!


Thanks,

Tony
