Hi, all - I'm sure many of you have "power couples" where both contribute to the organization but in different ways, i.e. as board members, event chairs, committee or council members, etc.
I'm wondering how you handling keeping track of each of their involvements. Right now we have a husband who is a board member and a wife who a part of one of our advisory councils. We've been having trouble keeping clear track in the record of who does what, who's attending which meeting, etc, because of the inflexibility of the N1 and N2 fields. We're doing various work-arounds with custom screens but imagine this must be a common problem. Right now, it's clear to current staffers which pieces of information belong to who, but we want it to be just as clear in the "if we were hit by a bus tomorrow" scenario.
How do other orgs handle this? Create separate records and link? Or keep them together and figure out a way to clarify?
Thanks,
