Hello,
Does anyone know which system table controls the gender drop down for names? Currently, Tessitura ships with only binary genders. We would like to add a non-binary gender status for our guests who don't identify as male or female.

I'm guessing TR_GOOESOFT_DROPDOWN, but don't have SSMS up at the moment to check.
Gawain is correct; there are gender values stored in TR_GOOESOFT_DROPDOWN (code 224). However, based on a quick test, it doesn't appear values here affect the Gender drop-down on the General tab of the constituent record. I don't know if there is a way to change that or if they are hardcoded...
D'oh. Very likely with particularly old parts of the PowerBuilder interface.
Hopefully this is taken care of when the new interface comes out for the constituent module, which I think is coming in v16 if I'm remembering correctly.
Yeah, that's one of the main enhancement targets for v16.

Here it is straight from the Chuck's mouth:

Yep, I had a TASK ticket about this not long ago and the binary genders are hard coded. It's a MAJOR bugbear for us.
