Contact Addresses Separated Between Home/Main
August 11, 2011, 02:11:34 pm
CiviCRM: 4.05
Drupal: 7.4

Importing contacts error with some of the address as home, some as main.  I see for some reason I had some as home, some as main on the import template. 

Main: State, Postal Code, Country
Home: Street, City, Country

How do I resolve this?  I'd like them all to be main.  How do I fix this easily and get rid of the home address?

from my IRC reply


[4:17pm] dlobo: easiest way might be to just run a couple of sql commands
[4:17pm] dlobo: the table is civicrm_address (and _email / _phone etc) and the field is location_type_id
[4:17pm] dlobo: so u can run an update statement on all those tables
[4:18pm] dlobo: argh
[4:18pm] dlobo: wont work
[4:18pm] dlobo: just read your blog post
[4:18pm] dlobo: forum post i mean
[4:20pm] dlobo: u'll probably need to merge the two address records into one, delete the other record and ensure all of them have the same location_type_id
[4:20pm] dlobo: should not be too hard in sql
[4:22pm]

So far I did this:  It worked.

select  contact_id,GROUP_CONCAT(street_address)...
from civicrm_address
group by contact_id

Not sure how to delete the 2nd duplicate row with work ID yet.
