MailChimp Integration Enhancements
| The Sage CRM MailChimp integration has been enhanced to automatically detect duplicate email addresses, making it easier to prevent and fix these occurrences. To ensure that a Person, Company, or Lead record being added to the system has a unique email address, system administrators can now use a new Detect duplicate emails option. Then, if a group sent to MailChimp contains two or more records with the same email address, the group gets rejected. |  |
This enhancement includes the following:
- Automatic detection of duplicate email addresses
- A new screen displaying records with the same email address
- A new MailChimp notification
Managing Documents
The technology behind the Document Drop capability has been updated so the functionality is now available in all browsers that are supported by Sage CRM. In addition, you can drag-and-drop emails from Outlook in all supported web browsers.
In addition, you can now create document templates to perform a nested mail merge. This is where a parent entity record has the details of one or more child entity records embedded into it. For example, you can create a template that generates an Order document with embedded Order Item records.
