Merging Contacts in GrowthMap™
Merging contacts helps keep your list clean by removing duplicates and combining important details into one main record.
Benefits of Merging Contacts:
- Eliminates duplicate entries.
- Consolidates data into a single, accurate record.
- Streamlines communication and tracking.
Important Notes:
- Merging contacts is a non-reversible action.
- Only admins have the access to merge contacts in a location.
Step 1: Select Contacts to Merge
- Navigate to the Contacts section of your GrowthMap™.
- Select the contacts you want to merge by checking the boxes next to their names.
- Click on the Merge icon on the top bar.
Notes: You can only merge up to 10 contacts in a single merge.
Step 2: Choose the Master Record
- In the merge preview screen, choose the Master Record.
- The Master Record is the primary record where consolidated data will be stored.
- All non-conflicting fields from other records will default to the Master Record’s values.
Step 3: Review and Map Fields
- Mandatory Field: Ensure you select a Primary Email and Phone for the Master Record. If there are additional email addresses and phone numbers, add them as needed.
- If there’s no Primary Email, remove additional emails and assign one as the primary to proceed.
- For conflicting fields (e.g., phone numbers, addresses), manually choose the correct data to retain.
The following information will automatically combine across all merged records:
- Courses
- Community Groups
- Products
The following information will default to the Master Record’s data:
- Activities
- Payments
- Orders
- Invoices
- Appointments
Step 4: Confirm the Merge
- Double-check your selections in the merge preview screen.
- Click Merge to consolidate the selected contacts into one record.
- Once merged:
- The data from non-master records will be consolidated into the Master Record.
- The duplicate records will be permanently removed.
Reminder: Merging is irreversible, so review all information carefully before confirming.
