What happened?
When I select a match, I get a yellow error bar at the top of the window saying “Error updating encounter: Please enter a different Individual ID” but when I go back to the encounter page, its been correctly updated and emails go out to previous data holder with correct identification.
What did you expect to happen?

What are some steps we could take to reproduce the issue?

If this is a bulk import report, send the spreadsheet to services@wildme.org with the email subject line matching your bug report

Hi @ShaneGero

Any chance you still have the link to that result so that I can try to reproduce it?

Thanks,
Jason

Once you match, the error goes away, and we havent been able to replicate it with another encounter yet. When it happens again, Ill be sure to not go ahead with the match and send links to encounters.
