School Forms -Update deceased indicator for Grandparent info Merged

Add Deceased as a Y/N field to the profile update block for grandparents


An important part of a profile update when Grandparent records are maintained, is to provide the opportunity for parents to notify the school that a grandparent has passed away during the year. It is awkward and uncomfortable to send out school mailings to Mr. and Mrs. Grandparents, when Mr. passed away 3 months ago.

    To me this seems to be a critical enhancement that needs to be made soon.  There should be a box where the person filling out the form and check "deceased" and date of death (both current fields in the "Personal Information" box in Core).   I wonder what the effect is to the grandparent's record if the person simply deletes the information in the name/address/phone/etc. fields in order to get rid of the information?   Will it trigger a profile update?  What are people using as a workaround?
