Values missing from Matching CiviCRM Field
March 10, 2010, 10:31:46 am
Trying to do a CSV import. Contact type is a subtype of Individual. The "Matching CiviCRM Field" dropdowns seem to have a random subset of the applicable fields. Some custom fields missing, some core fields missing too. For example, standard City and State show up but Zip does not.

I have approximately 20 custom data groups, and a total of approximately 100 custom data fields.

You might want to look for Postal Code instead of Zip during import.

Could you replicate the same on demo (http://demo.civicrm.org/) ?

Not only can I not replicate it on demo, now I can't replicate it on my own system. Auto-field matching is correctly guessing that 10012 is Postal Code, among other things. Seems to work quite well, now. Must have had too much/too little coffee before.

Sorry for wasting everyone's time.  :'(
