In working with BB support, we found there is no way to add a flag to the country of operation table indicating a country is part of the EU. We're trying to find a way to do this in tracking GDPR compliance. Aside from an attribute, any other ideas on how to track and maintain this information globally in the system? Thanks!

    Creating a separate area to manage the GDPR in reference to the OUT OF THE BOX COUNTRY TABLE will work best as you will need to manage that separately.


    Thanks

    We have used an attribute and found it to be fine. We add a region attribute to each constituent record which is populated by scheduling a global change instance of 'Add Constituent Attribute'. If you didn't want to go down this path then I agree with Syed. You could create a separate table with the ID from the country table as the foreign primary key and then expose this in the GUI with a data list the uses custom actions to insert, update and delete rows from the new table.
