Pupil preferred surname field available to the api

Platforms like Wonde and Groupcall have fields ready and waiting for the pupils' 'preferred surname' and 'legal surname' data, but iSAMS only currently presents the legal surname to the api.
Please can the preferred surname be added as a field available to the api.

    We are planning this work for next quarter. Please keep an eye on the delivery notes for confirmation of when it will be included.

    It has been almost 2 years since Preferred surname was added to iSAMS, unfortunately it is still unusable as it was not exposed in the API. If this becomes available in the future it will then take dev work by wonde etc and their clients to integrate. Please can this be made available as soon as possible so this work can start.


    Thank you
