Enquiries Arriving with Missing or Wrong Details

Updated 1 Aug 2026

An enquiry that arrives with fields empty or wrong is a mapping problem, not a connection one — the connection is plainly working.

Missing listing reference

Check the reference is mapped for both portals. REA and Domain format their payloads differently, and a mapping built against one portal's test enquiry can leave the other's field empty.

Wrong field

Check for two fields with similar names — mapping the enquiry message to a description field that your layout doesn't show produces "missing" data that is in fact captured.

Inspection requests looking like general enquiries

Confirm the enquiry-type field is mapped. Without it, everything looks the same and inspection requests lose their urgency.

Test each portal separately

Send one real enquiry through REA and one through Domain, then compare the two records field by field. Differences between them are almost always the cause.

If the mapping looks right

Log a case with the enquiry time, listing reference and portal, and note which fields were wrong.
