Adding Primary Addressee and Primary Salutation Column to Lists in NXT

Right now, when I create a list in RE NXT, the list only exports with the primary name on the constituent record.  Thus, I am missing information on spouses.  I would like to add the columns for Primary Addressee and Primary Salutation, which give more information than just the name.

    I'm confused. The email I received today says RENXT-I-2285 has been "Shipped" but the page link indicates the idea has now been merged with RE7-I-5450 and status here is listed as "Planned".

    also when we add a name format, it would be nice if the format was set for the Table Salutation we choose. Does that make sense? I want everyone to use the same format for Informal, say. First and First Last. Right now you can choose whatever you want the format to be and, in our system, there are so many!

    And please add the option for joint salutation as well. Thank you!

    Currently, you cannot export the primary saluation in webview either. So there is not a proper way to address a constituent in an email or e-blast. Pulling name pulls from Nickname & there is not a way to address one for ex: Dr. Smith.

    Also, there is no way to set up borders, etc - the emails in webview don't look as nice as in database view, nor have the same functionality.

    We need primary addressee merge fields in RE NXT web emails. I'm not sure why these ideas have been merged as they are different ideas. However, currently there is no way to personalize emails that go to both organization and individual records because they do not share the same fields that make sense for a personalized email.

    It is disappointing that idea RENXT-I-2285 has been merged into this idea, as they are distinct and different. RENXT-I-2285 was about providing merge fields for Addressee/Salutations in RE NXT web emails. Idea RE7-I-5450 is only about adding Primary Addressee/Sal to lists :(

    Any idea when this is coming? I know it is Planned, but we all needed it five years ago. I've been working with a new Blackbaud customer and they are absolutely shocked that this is not already available.

    I voted for this because the lack of functional household designations beyond spouses means we depend heavily on add/sals for proper communication.

    Yes please! Will this be implemented in RENXT soon?

    Primary Addressee and Primary Salutation are critical to our work. We need this feature both for mailing lists as well as e-mailing within RE NXT. This should have already been implemented years ago.

    Please consider making all addressees and salutation options available in use for lists etc. This primary is used differently across organizations and sometimes the primary may be used for a formal addressee and not a casual addressee. Thanks for the considerations.

    Won't be able to effectively use NXT Constituent Lists until Primary Addressee & Salutation is a column output option...

    Please add this feature ASAP...this is vital for our NXT Users.

    Please add the "Primary Addressee" and "Primary Salutation" columns to RE NXT.  It makes no sense whatsoever to not have these columns when we need to do mail merges.
