Specifying pronouns for contacts

For contacts of type Person or any of its subtypes, you can specify a set of pronouns on a contact. You can reference an existing set of pronouns from a typelist or input custom pronouns.

Use the pronounAggregate field to choose an existing set of pronouns from the PronounAggregateType typelist (for example, hehimhis). If different pronouns are desired, set this field to a value of selfidentify, and add pronouns using the following fields:
  • pronounSubjective - the person’s subjective pronoun, as a string
  • pronounObjective - the person’s objective pronoun, as a string
  • pronounPossessive - the person’s possessive pronoun, as a string

The values added to these fields are aggregated and used to populate the pronounAggregateDisplay field.

If the pronounAggregate field is changed from self-identify to one of the default values, the values in the pronounSubjective, pronounObjective, and pronounPossessive fields are cleared and set automatically. For example, if a value of sheherhers is input, pronounSubjective is set to She, pronounObjective is set to Her, and so on.
