Record Merge Implications

Category: General  ·  Sub-category: general-misc  ·  Last updated:
tool:salesforce
Use when merging Account, Contact, or Lead records in Salesforce and needing to understand what data is kept, what is deleted, and what side effects occur on related records. Triggers: 'which fields win in a merge', 'child records after merge', 'merge duplicate accounts', 'what happens to opportunities after contact merge', 'Lead merge field resolution'. NOT for deduplication strategy design (use data-quality-and-deduplication), NOT for Apex Merge DML beyond its direct implications.

From the source SKILL.md

Use this skill when merging duplicate Account, Contact, or Lead records — or when auditing what data was lost or reassigned after a merge already happened. This covers field resolution rules, child record behavior, automation side effects, and the differences between UI merge, Duplicate Management merge, and Apex Database.merge().

What this skill does

Record Merge Implications is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the general-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/record-merge-implications/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
