Originally, when we got fundraising, the "Kuriv" list had Paternal and Maternal.

I am not sure if I should have done this, but I entered "Brother" to the kuriv list in 2013.

Can I add additional relations? Sister, Brother-in-law (H), Brother-in-law (W), Sister-in-law (H), Sister-in-law (W)? Will the software deal with this?

If not, how should we enter these relationships.

We don't always have the information necessary to create parents account to link them that way.

Do you have a tutorial on the "relatives" and "relatives of" tabs?

The software will not do anything special with this. You will be able to query thru these types for them.

When adding Paternal And Maternal the system can build a family tree. Also you can query for uncles without having to enter them as such,

How would you recommend adding Father in law for our kollel students?

asrtiop: Do not understand your question.

We would like to add in-laws (wife's parents) of our married kollel students so that when dinner comes around they should be included in the mailing. Its not a code 2 and at the same time its not a Grandparent.

hope this clarifies the question

Even in a Fundraising Account without any children the In Laws or still called Paternal or Maternal Grandparent.

Thanks very much.

Would love in future to be able to extend tree in other ways (eg. sibling) w/o parents but it is good to know how the software will deal with things now.

Does JL have plans to extend the mapping feature to other relationships?
