Identity Tab Legal Name Field Needs to be Searchable
The addition of the new Identity tab with Legal Name field is very helpful in allowing districts to follow OCR requirements. However, the legal name is not searchable in the system. This field needs to be searchable for many clerical reasons. Please make this field searchable as soon as possible.

This functionality was added with 05.23.10.00.04.

This is super important. We are processing so many students that we get a lot of duplicates as it is.

Part of this should be that when a new student is added and the system looks for existing students with the same name, the legal identity tab is part of that search.

Fully supported by TSUG Steering Committee. Plus 10 votes per person, right?!

If a user has access to the Identity tab then they should have legal name options for searching on the student lookup screen.
