AnswerUse Plugin to Prevent Attribute Change of Master Account During Account Merge

    Hi all

    I've been looking at the merge account record functionality recently. With the standard merge functionality, user can select attribute from either master record or subordinate record and combine it. But in some cases, if the master account meets certain criteria, we do not want anything on the master record to be changed, instead just attach the subordinate accountid to the master account.  I guess plugin will be the way to do that and it will need to be registered to the pre-merge message. The question is how should I prevent the change of any attributes from the master record.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    I figured it out. Register the pre image and then update the master after the merge...
