ProDon:Searching and Eliminating Duplicates
Contents
Template:Header ProDon
Introduction
This procedure allows you to find clients duplicates in an active list. A duplicate occurs when there are more than one file for the same client.
|
| The active list is the list that is displayed onscreen in the "Client management", the "Task management" or the "Analysis & History". |
|
| If a filter or a search is made, the number of items onscreen decreases, but it still remains the active list. |
To conduct a duplicate search, you must always go through the Client management.
Searching duplicates
