As a tip, LO Recruits are most commonly sent to the “Contacts” record type and Agents to the “Referral Partner” record type.

Duplicate Rules for RETR Contacts

It is recommended to create a duplicate management rule specific to contacts received from RETR to ensure that data from the most updated contact from RETR.

For example, if the current record for 2 months ago says 10 transactions in the last 12 months and the new duplicate record says that realtor has 24 transactions in the last 12 month, we will want to update to 24 not keep the old production data that is no longer accurate.

1. Navigate to Settings>Duplicate Management

Start by clicking the Settings gear icon in the top right of Shape!

Once here, click the dropdown on the left titled “Sales & Marketing” to find the Duplicate Management settings page linked here.

2. Add a New Rule for Contacts Received from RETR

Click “Add Rule” in the top right to create a new rule. Name the rule “RETR Contacts” or something similar and set the record type to Referral Partners and Contacts. 

Also make sure to set the Merge Setting to “Automatic” and toggle the rule to “Active”.

3. Click "Add Advanced Conditions" to Ensure this Rule Applies to RETR Records Only

Above the record type field, you with find an orange “Add Advanced Condition” button.

In the new section, set the first dropdown to “Include Sources” and the second dropdown to your RETR Sources.

4. Select the Date Fields you Want to Check Against

We recommend setting this to Email or Phone Number as these are more unique than using their name but please feel free to run duplicate management off your preferred fields.

5. Update the Automatic Merge Settings to Overwrite the Existing Record with the New Data

In the Merge Rules, you will want to make sure the New Record is merged into the Existing Record and Overwrite All Fields. This will ensure the old record’s information is updated with the new data!
