What Is the Duplicate Lead Detective?

The Duplicate Lead Detective is a dashlet in the Leads record view. It scans for potential duplicates across Leads, Contacts and Accounts using key fields like Account Name, Contact Name, Phone Numbers and Contact Email.

• Multi-Field Matching: Identifies duplicates based on multiple fields.
  
• Customisable Severity Levels: Admins can set how sensitive the system is to duplicate data.
  
• Access to the Potential Duplicate Records: Easily view the identified duplicates via a clickable link in the dashlet.
