When making the connection to the filing committee, we recommend to open up the filing committee record and create the connection from the filing committee to the joint fundraising rep. Meaning, go to the candidate filing committee > click the connections tab and then make the connection from that record.
Open up the filing committee record for the candidate.
Select the Connections tab
Choose Connection Type: Joint Fundraising Rep
In the Connect With field, search for and select your filing committee record
Click green Add button
Now the connection appears on both this committee's connection tab as well as your filing committee record.
