Katrin,
The workaround is to do as you suggest. However, if a library tracks individual donors rather than a generic vendor of Donor, it becomes problematic because they can create thousands of donor vendors. Thus the need to separate vendors from donors. There are few library examples with 8,000 vendors and 99.9% of them are actually donors. This number of vendors can cause slow page loading and searching, which I think has been addressed in other bugs.
Hi Esther, thanks for explaining! I think some of these problems will be improved by the work on moving vendors to vue and making things all API driven. I hesitate to move them to a separate table in the database, I think a lot of the issues could be solved by filtering and having different "types". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
