We’ve made some exciting enhancements to your Address modal, improving a few key workflows that influence both organizing and fundraising.
Now you can:
• Manually set an address as Preferred (My Campaign only)
• Differentiate between an archived address (Current and Previous Addresses) and Deleted addresses
• Export addresses in either concatenated or parsed format
Preferred Address (My Campaign Only)
Only one address can have Preferred address status, a designation set according to the following logic:
1. Manually selected Preferred addresses will not be overridden by new addresses entered into the system.
2. Best Home address is the Preferred address, if none is manually selected.
3. Best Mailing address is the Preferred address, if no Home address is on the record.
4. Best Work address is the Preferred address, if no Mailing address is on the record.
5. Best Other address is the Preferred address, if no Work Address is on the record.
When a new home address is added to a contact record, it becomes the Preferred address, if the current address has not been selected as Preferred.
When a seasonal address is of the same type as the Preferred Address, Preferred status shifts when seasonal dates are in effect.
Suppressing Addresses:
The updated workflow for marking addresses bad is now done by archiving addresses. This allows you to note that an address is no longer current, while preserving it under the address history of a contact record. This is a distinct action from the newly introduced Delete option. All the ways you are currently able to mark an address bad, you can now use to Archive:
• Contact record - Select the ellipsis of an address and choose Archive
• Canvass Response - Selecting Moved or Wrong Address archives the Home/ Voting Address at the date of the Contact Result with the reason given being Moved or Wrong Address
• QuickMark - Select Archive Mailing Address
• Bulk Apply Suppression - Select Archive Address
To Delete contact addresses, users need the Security Function Delete Contact Addresses. Deleting addresses can be done from My Campaign databases only.
