Merging anomaly

Hi All,

On our Merge screen, we have two constituents in the Keep ID's column and one in the Delete ID's column all of which are totally unrelated to each other.

I can't remove them. I've tried unscheduling, but it doesn't help. 

I've tried adding in another Constituent ID to match the Delete ID to one which is a genuine merge for it, but I get a message saying the Constituent is involved in another merge and should be unscheduled first.

Don't know what else to try. Has anyone else seen this? Is it a thing that has a solution?

Thanks, Debbie

 

  • Hi Ruth,

    Yes please to the fix. These records have been sitting there for ages and they upset my sense of tidyness!

    Thanks very much. Debbie

  • We're on 12.5.1 and have this problem fairly regularly too. It was supposed to have been fixed by a hot fix and RAMP can't recreate it. However, I agree with Ruth's analysis on what causes the issue. I'm always (intentionally) typing in keep and delete ids that aren't the recommended ones.

  • Hi Debbie

     

    Yes we’ve seen this, and have added a process to tidy up these ‘orphans’ each night.  I can send it to you if you wish?

     

    I think it happens when typing in a keep id, which then prompts a suggested delete id, and then I type in an alternative delete id.  The scheduled merge shows only the keep id with no corresponding delete id.  I then do it again and it works.

     

    Thanks

    Ruth

  • I would love that fix too if you’re will to share.  It makes me a bit crazy to see those oddballs floating around.

  • We’ve created a daily job in sql to run this code –

     

    USE IMPRESARIO

     

    DELETE k FROM T_POTENTIAL_DUPS k

    LEFT JOIN T_POTENTIAL_DUPS d ON d.criterion = k.criterion AND d.status = 'D' AND k.status='K'

    WHERE

    k.status='K'

    AND d.criterion IS NULL

     

    Thanks
