changing ownership of emails/addresses?

Is it possible to change an email that is on a household account to being on an individual account? Looks like the "owner" dropdown is not active. Is that a security set up thing? 

We'd like to take advantage of the hh/indiv distinction, and we have a lot of emails that we don't know which individual they belong to, but we would like to update them as we find out. Any suggestions?

  • Brian -

    Sadly, that's not an actual dropdown (although I'd like it to be!). The only way I currently know of doing that is either a) manually enter it in the individual and delete it or b) move it through SQL in the backend.

    Unless someone wants to prove me wrong, which I'd really love. :D

  • As it stands, when adding a new entity, you can choose the owner within a household by selecting the appropriate constituent from the dropdown.  Once an entity (address, eaddress, etc) is saved, you cannot change ownership from the client.

    Hi Ryan,

    Does the following scenario describe your reply? I want to make sure I
    understand this correctly, since we will keep all email addresses and
    associated logins on the Household record when we convert.

    v10: Individual Type account with N1 John and N2 Jane Smith. One Primary
    email address on the account; the N1/N2 flag is set to Both on the Primary
    login associated with the email address.

    When we convert to v11, we will have the email address and the login
    associated with it move to the Household account, since we don't know if
    it's John's or Jane's email address. If we're talking to John and ask whose
    email it really is, and he says it's Jane's, is it possible to move the
    email from the Household account onto Jane's individual account with, say,
    1 or 2 clicks or the flip of a dropdown? Or am I understanding your
    response to mean the email and associated login are already saved to the
    Household account and therefore need to be deleted from the Household
    account and entered onto Jane's account? If that's the case, it's not a
    copy or a "reclassification of ownership" - it's a delete and add new
    situation - so how would we know what to set the Login password to? Jane
    won't know that we've un-done her password and she'll be very frustrated
    the next time she tries to login.

    Thanks,

  • Oh Ryan - you always teach me new things. Thanks for the clarification that it is a dropdown on first creation (e.g. clicking the 'Add' button and before saving the info). That makes me happy! At least I don't have to bounce through household/individuals when adding various pieces of info.

    Mary -

    From your scenario, that email & log in would already be a 'saved' entity and the drop down will not be active. The only way to "move" this information would be the delete and add method or through SQL. This is where I referred to having to do something like that through the back end or a custom report for your organization.

    This is all good to know! Perhaps we'll need to create a CSI each time we
    learn who the email address and associated login really belongs to, and
    then pull the CSI data into a custom utility to make the correct update
    without losing the password. That's my first thought, and I don't really
    like it so maybe there's another way. Maybe an automatically triggered
    email "We've learned that this email address really belongs to Jane, not
    John, so we've assigned it to Jane's individual account within your Lyric
    household account. Please click the following link to reset your password."
    I don't really like that, either.

    Wow, this may become quite a pain point since all of our logins are flagged
    "Both" instead of N1 or N2. Eventually we'd like to take advantage of the
    "individuality" that Next Gen has to offer, but the first step of getting
    existing logins attached to the right individuals seems daunting. I hope
    I'm missing something...

    Thanks,
    Mary

  • Just to further note here, that the issue of transfer or "change ownership" on a record is something that we've been discussing.
