Ability to designate that spouse gets soft credit in NXT

When I add a new constituent, it is such a pain to have to go to database view to make sure that spouses automatically are soft credited for spouse gifts. It would be so much easier if that was a field we could enter in NXT.

    Yes!!! This is showing as Shipped but is NOT currently happening. The record is being created but the gifts are not brought over to the surviving spouse record. When can we expect this to actually work?

    In database view, when a constituent is marked deceased and their non-constituent spouse is upgraded to a full constituent, there is an option to have all previous gifts automatically soft credited to the surviving spouse's record. It would be beyond helpful if this functionality is also included in NXT as soft crediting dozens or hundreds of gifts to a surviving spouse upgraded to full constituent is very time consuming.
