Allow open batches from webview to be viewed in database view

Currently, gift batches from the webview are only visible in the database view once they are "approved" or committed.  It would be very useful to our gift entry team to be able to view open batches from the webview in the database view as well.  They would also like the ability to edit the batches from both views.

    As others have pointed out, working with batch in NXT is useless. There are many fields unavailable and therefore we must continue in database view. We are very disappointed, to say the least, that there doesn't seem to be much movement in getting this resolved. Has there been any talk of when more of the field will be available in NXT batch?

    I don't understand why key fields - eg, Fund - aren't accessible when you view a committed NXT batch in database view. Extremely disappointing that I now have to search for yet another workaround in addition to the forty-five we already use because overall functionality is bad.

    @Jarod Bonino

    will this change as NXT functionality changes? Otherwise we are unable to use the NXT processing software because batch doesn't support our needs in web view. This is very frustrating to hear that you aren't working to expand NXT batches functionality and that as a result the processing software is now useless to those who need to process batches in database.

    We won't be working toward support for this. The major problem is that web view currently only supports a subset of what is available in database view. So if a user were to add gifts or edit them using fields of functions that are not supported in web view, the batch (and batch gifts) would not operate in web view.

    Yes, please do this!  We basically can't even use NXT batches, which means we also cannot use the online donation forms, because they are so limited compared to DB view.  Until NXT batches are fully functional, which could take a long time, being able to flip over to DB view to finish a batch would make NXT batches something we could actually benefit from. Right now they are wasted space.
