Transferring a Household Member

If a member of a household changes households, you can easily transfer the household member from one household to the other. You have the option of transferring the household member to an existing household or creating a new household to which to transfer the household member. Please note that the household constituent record (Constituent Class = "Household") cannot be transferred to another household.

If the household member transferring out of the household is the owner of the household address, the address will be copied to the household constituent record and the household constituent will then be the owner of the household address.

If the owner of the household address leaves the household:

·            If the household member who is leaving is the Head of Household, a new HOME address must be created for the household constituent with the same address as the HOME address for the previous head of household who is leaving. The status of the address record of the previous Head of Household is updated to BAD, the MANUAL_BAD_STATUS_FLAG is set to Y, the status of each linked address for household members to that address ID is also updated to BAD, and the MANUAL_BAD_STATUS_FLAG is set to Y.

·            If the household member who is leaving is not the Head of Household but it is the constituent who owns the household address ID, a new HOME address must be created for the Head of Household with the same address as the HOME address for the previous household member/address owner who is leaving. The status of the address record of the previous household member is updated to BAD, the MANUAL_BAD_STATUS_FLAG is set to Y, the status of each linked address for household members to that address ID is also updated to BAD, and the MANUAL_BAD_STATUS_FLAG is set to Y.

Alternatively, you can simply remove the household member from the household without adding him/her to another household. For more information, please see Removing a Household Member from a Household.
