Overview
An important question for every import is the handling of duplicates. How does DataBridge handle duplicates?
...
Note: We added fall-back duplicate check fields for all entities. If the first check cannot be executed due to an empty field, then the second field is used; more info
Skip if not found: Only update existing entities and not create new ones. This can be achieved with a new setting "Skip if not found" for each duplicate entity group in the Destination Setting page of your Profile.
Add new companies to selection: Automatically add new companies to a new selection in every import run. The name of the selection is: 'DataBridge [run date of job] new company
Ass Add updated companies to selection: Automatically add updated companies to a new selection in every import run. The name of the selection is: 'DataBridge [run date of job] updated company
For Persons there is extra option:
Skip associate update without error: Turn on to skip the import and continue processing the line when the person cannot be updated because it is an associate. Turn off to stop processing the line and raise an error.
Duplicate check combinations
The duplicate check can be done on a combination of entities also. The pulldown list for duplicate match shows only the combinations compatible with the mapped columns.
For instance if you have mapped Company and Department the option Company+Department is available as a duplicate check. In the example below this is Name+Department (these are the column names from the import file)
Below all the duplicate check combinations available for each entity.
