| There are some duplicate customer records in our database. I am able to identify them by their name, address, and contact information. I can certainly write SQL query to move all notes from one customer code to another without changing the notes details such as who created it and date. Unfortunately, I must do lots of copy-and-paste to get this done.Can this project be done with simply executing a block of SQL query without causing sever damage to the clean records?Thank you,--Fawad RashidiWeb Developerwww.fawadafr.com |

Hello Umstorom and Madhivanan,Here is the structure of the table: I was thinking of joining the CRMNote table to customer table on EntityCode to get the username of the people who created the duplicate records.All records that are created by username='fawad' will stay but all the duplicate records that were created by the other usernames will be obsolete. Before we obsolete the records, we need to move their notes to the active records.Please let me know if you have any question!Thank you very much for your help!--Fawad RashidiWeb Developerwww.fawadafr.com |
