I suggest looking at the relationship table in the sample RE database. This list is quite a bit longer than ours as we don't need 'step-parent/step-child' while some schools or other orgs may want that type of detail. We just started with a few basics: Spouse, parent/child, employee/employer...

I am building a new relationship process for our college outreach director and wanted to verify if Raiser's Edge limits the number of relationships that can be created or reciprocated per constituent.

Some of us do our best to document definitions in order to help...

Under individual relationships what is the difference between the primary business information check box and employee check box? Why are both listed since the primary business information as per Knowledgebase is used to indicate that the business is the indivual's current employer. This seems redundant...

Where is the best place to capture a "retired" business relationship? I notice the sample database captures it in Professions. I know of an organization that captures it in Relationships, but does not have a Reciprocal Relationship to match it. We have it in several places on different records...
