Do changes after the import. Reasons: TMG output. Many of us will continue to use TMG for Second Site and/or some reports. I use Second Site and will contine to use it. I am not going to make TMG changes that will affect my desired SS output. There are also some TMG reports that I'll continue to use. Imports are still changing in the other programs. RM may issue another update to it's direct import. Legacy's direct import isn't out yet. FH might have some import change (not sure about that). Features might be added by other programs. Each program is different. Items that import well into one program will need cleanup in another program.

This is something you do after you have imported your data (post-import) - and ideally, I should try and change my citation details before importing - to only two fields CD1 and CD2. My census sources - have five or six, but two would help. At least then, i could keep the head of household name as one field and the rest of the census data in the other. Every bit helps. I will give it a try with my test data, I have already transferred.
