Batch Consider not functioning properly

@Audrey Kidwell @Jen Hammerstrom
An update from Support on this one below.

"This is a follow up to an issue with updating organization fields.

An issue was identified that affected updating existing organization record fields when considering multiple applications at one time.  Previously, when multiple applications were considered and each had the "Update the existing record with selected fields from the application" option selected, that option did not carry over to all the applications within the consideration batch.

This meant that the first application in the batch that had the "Update the existing record with selected fields from the application" option selected first would update organization fields as expected; however, other applications would not update their existing organization records even though the "Update the existing record with selected fields from the application" option showed as selected in those applications.

This issue is resolved now.  In testing, if I select "Update the existing record with selected fields from the application" on the first application in a batch, that same selection applies to subsequent applications in that batch and works as described at the end of this article:  https://kb.blackbaud.com/knowledgebase/articles/Article/207349.

Note this applies to every organization field in your form except these fields:

Name

Mailing Address

Phone

Extension

Fax

Email

WWW Address

These fields will update only by clicking the "Select fields to update" button in each application, then checking the appropriate field to update with that application.

So when selecting "Update the existing record with selected fields from the application":

1 - If you do not click "Select fields to update", whatever custom organization fields/organization standard fields are in the application form will update the same fields in the organization record.

2 - If you click "Select fields to update" then select any of the standard fields mentioned above, those fields along with whatever custom organization fields/organization standard fields are in the application form will update the same fields in the organization record."
