Duplicate Customer accounts can I merge ok?

Post by ReWired » Wed Jul 14, 2010 3:26 pm

Hi All wondering if I can simply get a simple way to merge order between clients old accounts or any accounts they created in error and their primary account.

I was thinking update the ac_Orders.UserID FK to match their correct account UserId

If I made sure there were no more orders for an old user account could I safely remove them?

Some users just can't seem to remember the password or follow the password retrieval and just keep adding new accounts when they get in a fix.

Thank you.

Luke

Hello Luke,

We do that from time to time, to connect orders to an original user account. Yes, if there isn't any related data it's safe to remove it.
Thanks for your support
