Use Maiden Name as Search Criteria in GAIL

Use Maiden Name as Search Criteria in GAIL

Do you find yourself needing to search for a constituent using “maiden name”? If so, this is for you! A new search criteria field has been added that will allow you to search using maiden name without having to involve any advanced search options. 


 

Navigate to the Constituents Custom Search screen and locate the Maiden name criteria box. Remember, a person’s “maiden name” will need to be noted in GAIL (within the personal info tab or as an alias) in order for the system to recognize who they are. This field will also work the same as “last name” for constituents who have a marital status of “single”.
