The Membership in Households tool is used to track current and historical information regarding where and with whom a selected person has lived. Almost all the information here is linked to tools where this information is entered or maintained, so users such as Front Office staff who are expected to perform these functions need rights to these linked tools as well.
To learn how to use this tool, see the Membership in Households article.
