So, Let me get this right, if you look up in a census where somebody is on census night, and you enter that information into your database you expect the tool to realise that you already have an entry for that census, what about if someone got married on a census day, would you expect Legacy to omit a census record on that date also?
What has got to do with your comment about somebody being in a different country? Which is what my post was referring to?

The help explains some of what it uses to ascertain this. If I put a residence event for someone on census night then I expect that Legacy will determine that I found them "somewhere" on census night and then will not suggest I look for them in a different place on the same night? Does that make sense?

If not what do you expect?

My question relates to Legacy's new census tool and what it outputs based on what is in the database. I have entered a residence event on census night for the family in Ireland but I am still being prompted to look for them in Scotland by the tool. I think this might be a bug because I think if they have an event for census night then they should not appear in the census tool for other countries.
