In trying to clean things up and get ready for v11, I've run the check database utility in the toolkit. I had over 6,000 accounts that were missing name information. Of those, I'm left with 1,000 that I'm not sure of what to do with. Some of them are inactive accounts, do I need to reactivate them, correct the names and then re-inactivate them? Or can they just be left alone since they are inactive? What if some of those inactive accounts don't even have names in them (product of poor conversion processes), can they just be left alone and not affect the migration?
Adria,
To move to RAMP or upgrade to v11, you do not have to have all of your duplicate constituent accounts merged. We have done both (moved to RAMP and upgraded Tessitura) and have way too many duplicates for my liking, but they didn’t prevent us from moving forward with either.
Hope this helps!

Awesome Teresa.
Thanks.
We also have wayyyyy too many dups and we just don't have the manpower to manually merge them all.
