Option to Require Donor Address on Optimized Donation Forms
Merged
Please add the ability for organizations to make the donor address a required field on Optimized Donation Forms in Blackbaud. Currently, the address field is optional, which makes it difficult to ensure complete donor records for acknowledgments, receipting, and data integrity.
Having an option to require the address would:
Improve donor record accuracy in Raiser's Edge NXT
Support consistent mail acknowledgment processes
Help standardize address data when paired with autofill/suggestion tools (such as Google Address Autofill)
This enhancement would give agencies more control over data quality while maintaining a seamless donor experience.
Why it matters:
Complete and standardized donor data is essential for accurate receipting, stewardship, and reporting—this small feature would make a big difference for development teams.

As an organization, we should decide whether the address field on donation forms is required or optional. This should be a standard option.
This is an important option for all donation forms.
This feature should be a standard, not a voted idea. Without donor address, our duplicate count will increase greatly. Mailing acknowledgments without an address is impossible (which is our standard). Please make the donor address field a required field.
