Breaking changes

Configuring a person as an account opener no longer automatically sets them as an executive Breaking changes

What’s new

The relationship[executive] field on a Person object is no longer automatically set to true when you create a Person object with relationship[account_opener]. The requirements hash on an Account object might require that you explicitly indicate that the account_opener is also an executive. If this is the case, you need to indicate it by setting relationship[executive]=true.

Impact

This change removes the automatic setting of relationship[executive] to true when creating a Person object with relationship[account_opener]. You now need to explicitly set relationship[executive]=true if required by the account’s requirements hash. This modification provides more precise control over person relationships in account management.
