Old/New Data in "Profiles - Admin Notification" Email
November 22, 2010, 08:31:22 am
Currently, the "Profiles - Admin Notification" system workflow email sends the "new" data that was submitted through the profile form.

How hard would it be to add another column to those emails that showed the "old" data that was overwritten?

I'm unfamiliar with the code logic that renders these emails... but I'd imagine this might be a fairly straight forward feature to implement, and many CiviCRM Admin might find it helpful.

Anyone else? eh?

Yup it is straight forward, but I suspect it is not that much trivial.

Since currently templates carries current submitted data only.

we need to pull db data and assign to templates and write a logic to display both data's

Are the email notification sent "before" the data is committed to the DB or after?

Would the logic be at the Profile Field, Profile, or Template level?

Can someone point me to the related functions so I can peek at the code?
