[Vtigercrm-developers] Contacts Duplicated

[Richard Hills - Technologywise]

Just wanted to agree with Alan. This needs to be configurable. Not a 
default to check for xyz on any record.

This is a totally different request than MS' file replace check, it is 
more like if you created a file in windows with the same content as 
another file MS would pop up and ask you if you know you already have 
this information in another file, add the possible requirement of adding 
100 of such files a day and you suddenly have added 100 unnecessary 
clicks to some users work load.

Currently I think your requirements can be solved with a custom 
workflow? I believe we did this for leads in 5.4 whereby leads email 
addresses were checked against existing leads/contacts and save was 
rejected if found.
