How to Merge Duplicate Accounts or Enrollees

Sometimes you may have two identical accounts and need them combined into one. Here's what to do in that case.

Duplicate Accounts

An Account is typically identified by a name and a unique email address. Accounts are owned by a Primary Account Holder, who is ultimately responsible for payment. An optional Secondary Account Holder may also be included. In the event the Enrollee is an independent adult and not a dependent, the Account and the Enrollee might be the same person.

Sometimes an Account Holder will enter a different email address (or enter their email address with a typo) during enrollment, thereby creating a new account within Enrollsy. This means that the same person will have two different accounts under two different email addresses.

NOTE: Please DO NOT enter the same email address! If the same account under the same email address is showing up twice in the search bar, it is a bug that cannot be fixed at this time.

Merging Duplicate Accounts

When you merge accounts in Enrollsy, the system combines all information from the accounts involved into one. It is essential to understand what happens during and after this process to ensure no important information is lost.

Key Outcomes of the Account Merge

  1. Data Consolidation: - All enrollments and financial information from both accounts are merged into the account chosen to be kept. - Duplicate form field answers are resolved by prioritizing the data from the account being kept.

  2. Tags - Account, Enrollee, and Enrollment Tags do not transfer. You will either need to keep the account with the Tags, or transfer the Tags manually to the account that will be kept.

  3. E-sign Documents: - Electronic signature documents do not merge automatically. If any accounts include E-sign documents, ensure to notify your administrator so that these details can be managed correctly.

  4. Refreshing Your Dashboard: - After the merging process is complete, refresh your page to view the updated account details.

To merge Accounts in Enrollsy, follow these steps:

  1. Start a new chat within the admin portal and click:

    • View Support Menu

    • Merge Accounts or Enrollees

    • Merge Customer Accounts

  2. If you only have two (or at most three) accounts to be merged, choose "No" and click the form to create a ticket

  3. If you have more than two or three accounts, choose "Yes." You will be asked to attach a spreadsheet (a Google sheets template is provided) where you can list the accounts you need merged. Include the email address of the account to remain active, the email addresses of all accounts to be merged, and any additional relevant details.

Be sure to provide the following:

  • The email address of the Customer Account that needs to remain.

  • The email address of the Customer Account that needs to be merged and deleted.

  • Any other additional information relevant to the merge request.

We will automatically merge any financial data to the account that will remain.

Duplicate Enrollees

An Enrollee is the person participating or enrolling. The word Enrollee is a label that can be changed to Child(ren), Student(s), Registrant(s), Player(s), Subscriber(s), Member(s), Traveler(s), etc. Enrollees can be placed in one or many Programs during the enrollment process.

When a person is enrolling, if they have enrolled before, the Enrollee's name will be available under the Enrollee section of the Enroll Form to select. However, if the person enrolling doesn't click the name and instead re-adds the same name, this creates a duplicate Enrollee. A duplicate Enrollee will show up on the Account page twice (have two tabs with the same name), like this:
