Restrict Duplicate Records In Salesforce [Duplicate Detector]

Friday, April 8, 2011 by Aslam - The Alexendra
Hi All,
There are many needs in most of the times for business to avoid duplicate records in their systems. For example Companies don't want duplicate Accounts, Contacts or Leads to be inserted into the systems. So i came up here with one solution application called "Duplicate Detector".



This is a managed package, easy to install into Salesforce and ready to use. The package is in Beta and it gives you power to Configure following things:-

1) Custom Error message when duplicate found
2) Stop Duplicate
3) Report Duplicate, it stops the duplicate and also prompts the duplicate found record link records.
4) You can select fields on which you want to make "Duplicate Detector" to find duplicate and stops the insertion/updation.

I am planning to extend this package to put some more advance features in near future.

Go Here to download the package:

2) Configuration/Criteria Screen:


3) When duplicate record inserted (Account) it reports like below:



It may have some chances to enhance the tool, Try it and let me know your valuable feedbacks and any bug if you find.


Thanks
