Constituent Codes and Part Types

Review the following information for details about the Constituent Code field on various part types in the program.

User Login — The code applies to new and existing constituent records and is specific to each User Login part. For example, you can create separate login parts for subsites you create, such as multiple chapters. The constituent code for a login part may be Atlanta Member.
  The constituent code you select for this part defaults to the Transaction Constituent Code frame in Sign-up Requests on the NetCommunity page in The Raiser’s Edge for processing. The code selected for New Constituents in Blackbaud NetCommunityOptions also downloads to The Raiser’s Edge for new constituents. However, if the constituent code on the User Login part and in New Constituents is the same, the code is not duplicated on the record in The Raiser’s Edge.
Donation Form — The constituent code applies to new and existing constituents.
  This is the same for the donation steps in a Personal Page Manager and a Fundraiser part.
Event Registration Form — The constituent code applies to new and existing event registrants.
Fundraiser — This part contains two Constituent Code fields. The first field, located on the Step 2: Fundraiser Options screen, downloads automatically to new and existing records in The Raiser's Edge. This constituent code is typically used if you consider the fundraiser participant constituency to be different than a regular Blackbaud NetCommunity user constituency.
  These constituent codes do not appear in the Fundraiser transaction on the NetCommunity page in The Raiser’s Edge. However, after you process the transaction, they appear automatically on the Bio 2 tab in the constituent record.
  The second Constituent Code field, located on the Step 6: User Login Form screen, applies to users who register for the Fundraiser that are not yet members of your site. This constituent code defaults to the Transaction Constituent Code frame on the Sign-up Requests transaction on the NetCommunity page in The Raiser’s Edge.
  This is the same for the two Constituent Code fields in a Personal Page Manager part. The first field is on the Step 1: Personal Page Options and Administrator Roles screen. The second field is on the Step 2: User Login Form screen for a Personal Page Manager. It applies to users who sign up using the personal page registration.
Membership Form — The constituent code applies automatically to new and existing constituent records. This includes members or gift of membership recipients. This constituent code does not appear in the Memberships transaction on the NetCommunity page in The Raiser’s Edge. However, after you process the transaction, it appears on the Bio 2 tab in the constituent record.
Volunteer Opportunity — The constituent code downloads for volunteers who sign up for a job online. The code applies to existing constituent records.
