    Hi team, appreciate the additional feedback and examples of where macrons are being misinterpreted. I've shared this back with product teams work on on different areas this has been mentioned in and I'll be sure to round back with any updates.

    I want to be upfront that it's unlikely this'd be solved across all areas at once, and our teams may need additional detail to and a case raised with our Support team to further investigate. I'll be sure to share any updates with you here.

    This is really important as exporting the Contact with a macron not only loses the macron, but also the letter associated with it.
    This creates an audit trail issue as the contact name is effectively wrong. Our old Sage accounting system was able to manage macrons. We look forward to this being resolved timely as Te Reo is an officials NZ language. Thanks
