Exporting merged records with list of select fields
March 07, 2013, 06:18:50 am
This is on a site running 4.1.1

When we do an export of contact records from a search, and choose both 'Select Fields to Export' and 'Merge all contacts with the same address', the resulting CSV file has, after the fields that were selected, also:
  • Addressee
  • Postal Greeting
  • Email Greeting
  • Street Name
  • Household Name
  • State/Province

I assume these are added as a helpful way to provide modified greetings that reflect the records that were merged, however our users are having a tizzy about the extra fields.

Is this a bug that is now resolved, should I file a bug report, or just advise the users to delete the extra columns and get over it?

Can you test this on the 4.2.8 demo site and if it's also there, you could file a bug report I think.
