I work for an all-female high school and since so many of our alumnae marry then change their last name it is essential that I have the capability to search on maiden name. Our RE business rule automatically saves maiden name as an alias. The RE mobile app does not have the ability to search aliases. Please consider adding this capability.

    Hi Mary Beth,

    You can post Ideas in the Ideas Bank.  The one for Raiser's Edge 7 is here https://community.blackbaud.com/products/raisersedge7/ideas .

    RE NXT does allow search by alias and you can use that on mobile devices.

    Hope that helps.

    Stephanie

    To add to Stephanie's response this definitely came up during the Moblie App EAP back at the end of 2016.

    There is already an idea out there for it. https://re7.ideas.aha.io/ideas/RE7-I-1277
