For an action with an organization constituent, the Contact field displays who to interact with or perform the task for. For more information about a contact, select their name to open their record.
Tip: You can choose whether someone is a contact at an organization in the database view. On the individual's constituent record, add or open the organization on the Relationships tab, and then select Contact under For this organization, this individual is a(n) on the General 1 tab of the relationship record.
Having the ability to associate organisations' actions with a contact would elevate both RE Classic and NXT to a different level; the database would then become much more aligned with a CRM and not just primarily a fundraising database with some contact functionality.
This would be really useful and I really urge others to support the idea.
Do we really have to go into the database view to link an organization action with a contact? Would be great if we could do that from within NXT!

I was wondering if there is an update on this idea?
Any update?
I agree, I have received this request from several development staff members. It would be extremely helpful.
