It claims to take care of acronyms and even mergers! I tried with small contact list, and it did match some those were not exact match. Can some one try with a bigger list and share experience. | |

| Apr 16, 2013 at 19:39 | comment | added | techtrekker | You should look at an AppExchange App like CRMFusion DupeBlocker or DataScout for eg, I've used DupeBlocker which you can set to run in the user's context, rather than overriding security, I've used it to dedupe only against the silo of data visible to the user. The complexity of something homegrown will grow rather rapidly as more business needs surface. | |

| Apr 16, 2013 at 10:52 | comment | added | Mike Chale | Welcome to SFSE, Masond3. While de-duping is definitely a Salesforce topic, I wonder if a question regarding fuzzy logic might be better served on Stack Overflow since it is more of a general programming concept. | |
