Constituent records with a primary email address
Constituents, with a primary email address noted in the record, provide the most direct way to communicate with the constituent.
Recommendations:
- Constituent Matching Settings - Webforms.
- Enable the additional matching criteria feature.
- “Ignore additional matching criteria if first name, last name, and email address match exactly”.
Option 2:
- Enable the 100% match merging option.
- “Process automatically - Matched constituents”.
Option 3:
- Run the 100% match merging option in Altru manually.
- Decide if the configuration needs to be revised.
- Set up an automatic 100% constituent match-merge to run every day
- Dedupe the remaining constituent records using the Deduper application
- Determine who the email address belongs to
- Detach the email address from the husband or wife
If an email cannot be detached, create an alias for the email:
- Example Jane Ferguson - jane@yahoo.com → jane@yahoo.com
- Example Joe Ferguson - jane@yahoo.com → jane+joe@yahoo.com
