MS CRM Duplicate Detection rule not working
Hi,
we have configured a duplicate detection rule for the Account entity that checks for exact match on account name. this rule worked fine but was returning inactive records as duplicates.
so we updated the rule to include 'Status' is exact match.
after re-publishing the rule we have tested by creating a duplicate 'active' record. But on the first save of a duplicate record, the duplicate rule is not being picked up. If the record is saved again the duplicate rule does run and the user is prompted.
what could be going wrong here? we need the rule to fire in the first instance
has any one seen this before?
