Description

When you export any info in Civi, the address exported is NOT the address marked "Primary." This is a problem for us for anytime we mail (3-4x/year) and every time we do handwritten notes. Can we change the default settings so the correct address is exported?

I just tested this on the staging 4.6 instance & couldn't replicate it - so it may be fixed!

Might be a good thing for others to try as part of testing the upgrade though

@CaitVirtue
Would you test this again? If it's still misbehaving, please give us more detailed steps to reproduce, i.e. the exact type of export you're running.

@RLewis could you help retest this?

• DStrine moved this task from Sprint +2 to Q3 2021-2022 on the Fundraising-Backlog board.Jul 14 2016, 9:08 PM

@DStrine I tested this by doing the following search:

Find Contributions
07/01/2016 to 07/18/2016
$1000 dollars

Exported the search results and used the Saved Field Mapping - Basic Gift Export - Individual & Organization

And the Primary addresses for each contact were exported.

thanks @RLewis
