Deceased people showing up on birthday report
When I run a birthday report even though I have unclicked the box for "deceased" it still shows the deceased person on the list. Is there something else I should be doing so they do not show up on the list?
Re: Deceased people showing up on birthday report
First off ... is this a custom report you are using ?? If so, have you made sure that part of the selection critieria used to pull data for the report does not include deceased members.efumc wrote:When I run a birthday report even though I have unclicked the box for "deceased" it still shows the deceased person on the list.

For instance:
If you're pulling birthday data for Members only, you should have a line in the custom report that says something like:
Personal Status Code exactly matches "Member"
Now if you're using the personal status code to reflect that the person is deceased,
This assumes the status codes are as follows:
- Member, Deceased Member, Visitor, Inactive Member, Friend of Church
Not knowing how your system is setup, I can't give you any more advice that that.
Hope this helps.
