This document will go through the differences in field merges between Eloqua9 and Eloqua10. You will be able to see how the source code for the different

field merges change after the update.

Eloqua9 had many different types of field merges. Below is a list of these field merges:

 

Eloqua9

Eloqua10                                                                         

Email Field Merges

Contact Field Merges

Contact Field Merges

Account Field Merges

Prospect Field Merges

Event Session Field Merges

Company Field Merges

Event Field Merges

Data Object Field Merges

Custom Object Fields Merges

Profile Field Merges

 

Event Header Field Merges

 

Form Field Merges

 

Generic Field Merges

 

Custom Field Merges

 

PURL Field Merge

 

 

These field merges were used in different areas of the application. For example, Form, Generic, and Custom field merges were used on Confirmation Pages;

PURL field merges were used on PURL hypersites, etc. Eloqua10 was created with a more simplistic approach in mind so only one type of field merge was

retained, Email field merges. Please see the above table for Eloqua10’s Email field merges.

If any type of field merge other than an Email Field merge is used in Eloqua9 please make sure to update the asset to contain Email Field merges before

updating to Eloqua10. If the field merges are not changed in advance the field merge will not work after the update. You will still see the field merge in

the HTML, but when the asset is viewed no value will be inserted into the field merge, it will remain blank.


Activity Driven Content (ADC) and Include Content

ADC in Eloqua9 will migrate to Dynamic Content in Eloqua10. Include Content and Shared Content from Eloqua9 will convert into Shared Content in Eloqua10.

Below you will see the changes in the source code:
