I feel like a preference with this should allow us to define what constitutes an exact match to go straight to a record: * Exact match on card number * Exact match on phone number * Exact match on email * Exact match on name * etc. We could then decide which ones we feel most comfortable matching on. For me, it would only be the barcode, because it can't be repeated in another record. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
