Query Categories

Query Categories - It would be useful to be able to multiple select queries to move into a category - rather than having to drag and drop separately, ie Ctrl+Select like you can in Windows Explorer.

    This would be very helpful and save a great deal of time. Let's hope they do it!

    I am in the process of doing a cleanup on our database and we have so many queries that were created by staff long gone. These queries need to be cleaned up and Deleted. I am trying to move them to a folder. Please, Please implement this soon.

    Cindy - why are you needing to move them to a folder? Why not just use the "delete multiple queries" functionality?

    Melissa, I want to move them to a folder to mark for deletion and notify my teams that the folder exists and then give them a date in which they need to review the list. Then after they have reviewed and moved the ones they want to keep, then I will delete the folder. I plan on doing this regularly so that the list of queries does not get out of hand. Also, I want to move a group of similarly named queries to specific folders. Thanks!

    as a new admin I'm trying to clean up 100s of past queries --moving them in bulk would be a huge time saver

    This would help A LOT to move them in bulk. Please consider this option in future versions.

    I agree! trying to collapse/ marry multiple categories is nearly impossible

    Trying to clean up 100's of queries and having to drag them one by one into their respective folders is an expensive consumption of time and effort. Please add this feature to RE.

    At the same time, it would be nice to also be able to create query category sub-folders, which would help to be better organized.

    I have inherited a system where Query Categories and folders have never been revised/cleaned up. This feature would allow this process to be much more streamline and time saving.
    Thank you!

    I have been asking Blackbaud these very questions for quite some time-- both the moving multiple queries at once, and the need to have sub-folders within the query.

    Another option I would greatly appreciate would be printing the name of the folder a query is listed in when printing out a preivew of selected fields. With so many queries and folders, it would be helpful to have this option printed.
