WHAT DEDUPE OPTIONS ARE THERE?
Your dedupe field can be any of the Table Fields you have in your Core Table, we would recommend the email address which is set as the default but it could be the ID number MessageFocus gives them, a job title etc.
-
HOW DO I PREVENT DUPLICATING MY EMAIL RECORDS?
Our Core Tables give you the option to prevent duplications, all you need to do is select the 'Overwrite duplicate records' radio button, when either creating a core table or through the settings tab.
The default deduplication field is the email address but it can be changed, for example to a specific ID no.
-
WHICH DEDUPLICATION METHOD SHOULD I USE TO IMPORT?
The deduplication method decides what will happen if a record is found in your CSV that matches a record already in the core table.
For an explanation of the different options, you can see our Duplicate record handling documentation.
