Web Account Create - Household

I'm looking for any organizations that have incorporated the new household create into their website account creation.

  • Just bumping this thread.  I know that there were some at the conference that had already gone live with the household creation on their website and I would really like to hear from you as we are just getting started on this project.

    Hmm, well, we're only doing it through backwards compatibility - but this is a point of contention for me --cause it doesn't work right, IMO.

    Using existing SOAP calls, when an individual adds a Name2, the API will convert the individual to a household, make them the A1, name2 -> A2, but follows no business rules on email/login data, and actually keeps them on the household.

    Thats problematic when you want users to login as the individual but transact as the household, and defeats the purpose of context.

    Furthermore, if the Name1 individual has an existing affiliation (say to an employer), the conversion fails, last i checked.
