Event - Registrant ID - Search List

For events, I have been using this Search List (via the appfx web service) to locate a registrant by their “Registrant ID” (ex. evreg-10001375) - where this registrant id is the filter field “LOOKUPID”.

RegIndividual Search
[d0bc00e4-f377-49a9-a278-8dbf95439df6]

For hosted instances of BBCRM, it seems that the backing CLR types have been deprecated:
Blackbaud.AppFx.FAFEvent.Catalog, Blackbaud.AppFx.FAFEvent.Catalog.RegIndividualSearch

Does anyone know of a similar search form where I can search by the registrant ID? The only one I see is this one:

Registrant Search
[a82add94-a42e-4e75-82da-24c5ef868c13]

However, the filter field “LOOKUPID” is the constituent lookup id, which will not work for my purpose.

TIA

  • Hey Ben,

    It seems like there is no other Registrant Search List by which you can search for the RegistrantID as it shows on the Registrant screen, so it seems your only solution would be to create your own custom Search List Spec, deploy it out, and replace the existing Search List with the new version (there's a tool in CRM to do the replacing).

  • Thanks for the reply, Steven!

    For better or worse, the service I work on is predicated on avoiding customizations to BBCRM instances -- it seems I may have to remove this feature.

    Really unfortunate, as most event registration platforms have no knowledge of a constituent's Lookup Id.

    They usually receive a system generated id upon registration, which we can use as the registrant id in BBCRM -- this is particularly useful when a registrant signs up guests, as we can use the externally generated registration id to link primary --> guests in many cases.

    Thanks again - if I find an alternative that does not involve customizations, I'll reply to this post.
