Although we have the ability to manually add a guest meal choice in Raiser's Edge and NXT, we do not have the ability to import the guest meal choice from our event registration tool into RE. Please add guest meal choice as an importable field in Raiser's Edge and the API in order to streamline this process.
Thank you, Samantha!
Hi Lily,
Thanks for the Idea! I've opened this for voting. We have some future work releasing later this year with a new concept for NXT Events called Participant Options, which will the the right place moving forward to set something like Meal Choice as something you want to collect on an event record. We do have import functionality on our 2020 roadmap; I anticipate at the time of that release you will be able to also import Participant Options like meal choice.
I'll update this Idea once I have a better sense of timing for release. Thanks again!
