Conversion from DM5: newsletter method

Post by KristaB »

I am excited about the Newsletter Method field in DM6, but I got rather unexpected results with the conversion of my data from DM5.

When "Send Newsletter" is not checked in the source data, shouldn't the default Newsletter Method be "None"? Mine came across as Email if they had an email address and Paper if they didn't. I had to do a lot of cross-checking to get my paper newsletter list back to what it should have been.

There may be a reason it is the way it is, but just a suggestion based on my experience.

I think your point is well taken.

I will make that adjustment in the DM 5 -> DM 6 migration.

Thanks for the suggestion.
