Duplicate records in Dynamics 365 CRM can lead to problems like data inconsistency, confusion among users, poor customer experience, and inaccurate reporting and analytics. Therefore, organizations must implement robust deduplication strategies to defeat duplicates in your CRM and ensure the integrity and reliability of CRM data.
Dynamics 365 CRM comes with native duplicate detection rules to help users deal with duplicate records in CRM. These rules can automatically flag duplicates whenever a user creates or updates a record, but when it comes to complex scenarios, they might not be enough.
For instance, with these rules, you can only prevent duplicates during data entry but not detect existing ones. For more advanced deduplication needs, you need to check out DeDupeD by Inogic.
