This isn't planned for database view RENXT, but is planned for queries with the single-row result layout in web view.
Can't believe we're still asking for this.
WHY is this still not a thing???
Why is this still not available??!
This needs to be done.
Yes please
Yes, yes, yes!!!
Yes, indeed!
Yes please! Even with export, if I select to only include HOH, it will include a non-HOH if the HOH is not in the query. Kinda defeats the purpose!!
Changing the status of this idea to Voting Open because it's been reviewed. While not currently planned, this will remain open for voting and future consideration as a change.
Please note that this idea only represents adding the ability to query more directly on whether a constituent is Head of Household. This is currently possible as noted in previous comments, but requires including the field from Relationships.
Any other ideas, such as changing where Head of Household is actually tracked on the record, should be requested in a separate idea.
Yes, please! I know that the Export can accurately remove those secondary records, but that means I have to export my list and then import it back to add appeal tags or event records as Invited...or else I'll have records marked for both HOH and SecRec, when only one piece of mail is being sent - looks like double-counting, and throws off stats.
As a workaround, and since we've moved solicit codes to Attributes (those are easier to work with there), we've turned Solicit Codes into a HOH or Secondary Record tag - nice and easy to see on Bio1 (without opening the relationship record)...ut it's still a pain in the neck when compiling mailing lists.
Yes I agree- Export is an option but time consuming and Export does not have a favorties option. Added a head of houshold option in query that works would save a lot of time.
You can remove non-heads of households in query - under relationships/individuals/ there's the option to search based on whether the person is the head of household or not. The easiest way to make sure you've accounted for all the heads of household is to do a suppression query that includes a line "This Individual Is The Head of Household equals No."
I would like the head of household option not recorded through the spousal relationship and have HoH recorded directly on the HoH individual record.

OH MY GOD! It is so backwards!
Anonymous - I am not sure what you mean?
Having the "This Individual Is the Head of Household" flag available at the "Constituent Information" and "Spouse" levels of a Constituent Query (rather than buried and only available at the "Relationships > Individuals" level would be IMMENSLY helpful!!
I don't use query to export, but this this would be helpful because I often look at the query before running it through mail or export to get a sense of the number of constituents I'm gong to be mailing to or whatever.
It would be great to be able to display which record is head of household in a query as well.
This might help with a problem we have... Sometimes we catch a spouse in a query for a mailing because the info lives on the HOH record. We don't actually want to send to the couple.
