Ability to import contact IDs during contact import
John Rous
Adding the ability to import contact IDs while importing contacts will help organizations merge duplicate contacts and give them the ability to import their own contact IDs.

Please, please, please. We do large mailing campaigns, but we won't be doing them through Givebutter until we can manipulate our data in bulk for our address-only contacts.

Critical need...names and emails change...sometimes every time a person makes a donation. Must have the ability to import using the unique key for each individual.

Dear god please. A database needs a primary key for every entry.

even better, it could help prevent duplicates in the first place!

Allow record matching via contact ID

instead of just firstname + lastname and either email or phone number. Imported contacts often times won't have either of those fields. This forces updates such as subscription status to be done manually rather than via an additional import.

Without this option, there doesn't seem to be any way to update contact information in bulk. If there is no email address or phone number for a donor, importing by name (with the new information) creates a brand new contact. Need to either be able to match imported information to existing contacts when you don't have all 3 fields that the system uses to identify duplicates.

I would love better record matching, period. This week I created an account. I was able to successfully import contacts, but when I imported transactions it was a disaster. Even though I put first and last name on every transaction, the system brought every transaction in as a distinct contact. None of them matched to the preexisting contacts, and none of them matched to one another.

This would be good back-up option when email or phone number wasnt part of an earlier import.
