Hi fr-tech,
We recently discovered that, when a contact record we've been emailing gets merged with another record in Civi, it erases the values for the following Acoustic system fields:
- LastSentDate
- LastClickDate
- LastOpenDate
I spoke with @bsisolak on the matter and he said that if Civi merges by deleting the old record, it just needs to grab that data before deleting it.
Going forward, we would like for those data points to be retained during merges because we use those fields for email sends. Donor Relations has found some examples from Email 5 last week where people who shouldn't have received an email got one because their LastSentDate was erased.
Happy to provide more details if needed. Thanks!
