Adding Educations in RENXT

Rebecca Kottler

I saw the update about being able to add and edit Education in webview. I tried to do this and the scroll bar stopped for me in the N's. My organization's name starts with an O and we are a school! I can't add a new education for my org! We should be able to search or Blackbaud needs to give us access to more schools to be able to scroll through. Cleaning up my institution table would probably help this a little, but probably not enough to give me access to A-Z.

@Rebecca Kottler welcome to the BB community forums.

I panicked a bit when I read your post. I had not tried to add education records in web view yet. We're an “S” university.

When I go to add an ed record there is a search option in the top box. Try typing “O” or first letters of your school name in the box and see if it populates for you.

I am already tired of all the scrolling web view requires - having to scroll to the “S's" would have be too much.

I am aware that there is a 100 limit on the number of entries shown. (event participant record's Participation field, we had over 100 and it gets cut off too).

Search the IdeaBank, i'm sure there is already an idea that you can vote on or create one. While I would totally agree it is a BUG that only 100 is shown, BB answer has been otherwise….

@Rebecca Kottler also keep in mind that the schools are in a table, which means you can reorder the entries however you would like. If there is a school that is used a lot in manual data entry, move it to the top of the table and you will not need to scroll.

And as JoAnn said, start typing and you can find the school.

I agree that this should be corrected by Blackbaud but there are also some very easy fixes that users can try that will not rely on Blackbaud.
