The standard Aptify installation provides the compiled object and source code for two sample duplicate check objects: one for Persons and one for Companies. Note that these objects are provided as samples only since what may be considered a duplicate will vary from entity-to-entity and from organization-to-organization. The sample objects use the following logic to identify duplicates:

• Sample Persons Duplicate Check Object (AptifyPersonDupeCheck.dll): When a user attempts to save a new Persons record, this sample object checks for existing Persons records that have the same First and Last Name. If any matches exist, Aptify identifies these records as potential duplicates.
• Sample Companies Duplicate Check Object (AptifyCompanyDupeCheck.dll): When a user attempts to save a new Companies record, this sample object checks for existing Companies records that have the same exact Name. If any matches exist, Aptify identifies these records as potential duplicates.

By default, the Aptify installer adds these sample objects to the Aptify Object Repository, but the duplicate checking functionality is not enabled.
