Hi

Due to a bug in my version, the current_employer fields do not always reflect the active 'employed by' relations. Put different, the relations are ok, but the 'current_employer' fields are not.

What would be a good way to fix that ? I was hoping for a cli script to run through all contacts and 'repair' them. Is that possible ? Any examples around ?

curious,

Hi

thanks for your answer.

What is your version and what is the bug exactly?

http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-10805

It's fixed, but its rather hard to backport - code has changed completely over the versions.

You could write a PHP script to fix this, presuming you just want to populate that field based on the relationship.

Exactly what I was thinking. A php/cli script, preferably using the api, to fill the field based on the relation. Is there an example of such a script somewhere ?

thanks,
