Household

[ngilday]

Is a household just the parent entity in the structure?

Thus household is built off the same class as contact and company?

Thanks

Hi Neil,

Yes your understanding is correct.

Below is summary explanation, I have also shared the link to the technical diagram in developer training

Entity is a base class for Person(Contact), Household and Company

However, Person.meta is a direct child class.

HouseHold and Company are child classes of Organization.meta which is also a sub class of Entity

Entity-> Person

Entity-> Organization -> Company

Entity-> Organization -> Household

Also:

Entity-> Organization -> Department

 

Functionally, only Person (Contacts) can be in a household and play unique role

Company and Department are part of hierarchy structure independent of Households

A contact can belong to both a Company or a Household

Hope that helps.

Regards,

Dhruv
