    Strategies for Marking Constituents as having No Children

    Hello!

     We are working to create a process for marking that a constituent has no children.  Our current policy is to record children as relationship records.  However, we now want to track where someone has no children.  I'd like to hear how other organizations track this information and the benefits/pitfalls you've encountered with that method so we can implement the most effective and efficient system possible.  We've considered both attributes and relationships as an area to track this.  Any insights/experience you can offer would be much appreciated.

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    If you already track children relationships, couldn't you just query on all those couples that don't have an individual relationship where the relationship/reciprocal field is child?
