Need advice on preventing duplicate entries in People table
Hi,
In my database, I have a "People" table where I store basic information about people e.g. PersonId, FirstName, LastName, Gender, etc.
There will be lots of entries made into this table and I want to prevent duplicate entries as much as humanly possible. I'd appreciate some pointers on what I should do to minimize duplicates.
My primary concerns are:
Duplicate entries for the same person using the person's full name vs. given name e.g. Mike Smith and Michael Smith
Making sure that two separate individuals with identical names do get entered into the table and get their unique PersonId's.
Not even sure how I can even possibly know if two individuals with identical names are two different people without having additional information but I wanted to ask the question anyway.
Thanks, Sam
Thank you all very much for your responses.
There are three separate issues/points here.
It is clear that it is impossible to prevent duplicates using only a person's first, middle and last names. Once I rely on an additional piece of information, then things get "easier" though nothing is bullet proof. I felt that this was self evident but
wanted to ask the question anyway.
Second issue is "potential" duplicates where there are some variations in the name e.g. Mike vs Michael. I'd like a bit more advice on this. I assume I need to create a table to define variations of a name to catch potential duplicates.
The third point is what Celko brought up -- rather nicely too :-) I understand both his and Erland's points on this as typical relational DB designs usually create people/user tables based upon their context e.g. Employees, Customers, etc.
I fundamentally disagree with this approach -- though it is currently the norm in most commercial DB designs. The reason for that is that it actually creates duplicates and my point is to prevent them. I'm going for more of an object based approach in the DB
design where a person is a person regardless of the different roles he/she may play and I see no reason in repeating some of the information about the person e.g. repeating first, last name, gender, etc in both customer and employee tables.
I strongly believe that all the information that are directly related to a person should be kept in the People table and referenced in different business contexts as necessary.
For example, I assign every person a PersonId in the People table. I then use the PersonId as part of the primary key in the Customers or Employees table as well. Obviously, PersonId is also a foreign key in Customers and Employees tables. This prevents the
need for a separate CustomerId and allows me to centralize all the personal data in the People table.
In my opinion this has three advantages:
Prevent duplication of data
Allow global edits e.g. if the last name of a female employee changes, it is automatically updated for her within the context of "Customer" role she may play in the application.
Last but not least, data enrichment where a person may enter additional data about himself/herself in different contexts. For example, in the employee context, we may have the person's spouse information through "Emergency Contacts" which may come handy
within the context of customer for this person.
Having everyone in the People table gives me these three advantages.
Thanks, Sam

I would like to make sure there are no duplicate data entries in my Oracle 9i table (called MainTable) which has an Id field that is the primary key, ValData with a varchar data type, Fid and Fid2 are number data types.
Id ValData Fid Fid2
1 abc 34 2
2 efg 23 34
3 zeo 25 43Sometimes someone can enter a duplicate ValData, Fid and Fid2 and it will end up like this:
Id ValData Fid Fid2
1 abc 34 2
2 efg 23 34
3 zeo 25 43
4 zeo 25 43What constraints or restrictions can I place on the MainTable where it will never allow a duplicate entry into the table?
I would like to do this somehow in the database. If someone tries to enter a duplicate I should get a error message or something to indicate an attempt to enter duplicate data.
Please advise if this is possible?We told you above - next level of support is onsite but not sure your zipcode is similar to mine.
First you have to clarify if the three fields must be uniq as a combination or if valdata alone cannot be duplicated. In other words:
id valdata fid fid2
1 abc 34 2
2 abc 23 34
is this legal?
Depending on the answer you apply the appropriate solution. If answer is yes, you apply this:
alter table <table name> add constraint uniq_combination unique (valdata, fid, fid2);
if answer is that it is illegal because you want to prevent valdata alone to assume duplicate values, then:
alter table <table name> add constraint uniq_valdata unique (valdata);
See Guido's comment above concerning the handling of the DB generated error.

How to prevent duplicate entry in Details block
Dear All
I am using Forms 10g.
I have a detail block.
There is a column called Ip_Address.
There i want to prevent duplicate entry .
How can i do this ?hey i have a requirement that to restrict duplicate entry in both block(both multi record).the blocks are DEPT(MATER)
EMP(DETAIL)
the associated fieds in master block DEPT.DEPT_NO,in detail EMP.EMP_ID .
I have done' Kevin D Clarke’s calculated item ' both in master and detail block
its working fine for master block but in case of detail block its only respond to the current session(i.e. if the new value is inserted or save it will restrict another record to be inserted of that last record's value),it does not restrict duplicate value enter ,checking with other existing records(which are saved in earlier session,though after query it is shown on the form)
can anyone guide me why its not working -
How to check duplicate entries in internal table??
Dear Friends,
How to check duplicate entries in internal table??
Exp: In my internal table if I am having the same records more then ones then I need to print the error message, here I am using steploop for selecting the values from screen, and the values are coming into my internal table if user enter the same value more then ones I need to print the error message.
Thanks,
SridharHi,
After storing the data into internal table say ITAb, move the data into another internal table.
t_dup[] = itab[].
LOOP AT itab.
count1 = count1 + 1.
itab-count1 = count1.
MODIFY itab.
ENDLOOP.
LOOP AT t_dup.
count2 = count2 + 1.
t_dup-count2 = count2.
MODIFY t_dup.
ENDLOOP.
DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM itab.
LOOP AT t_dup.
record_dup = 'N'.
READ TABLE itab WITH KEY count1 = t_dup-count2.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
record_dup = 'Y'.
ENDIF.
IF record_dup NE 'Y'.
t_dup-message = 'DUPLICATE ENTRY'.
t_dup-flag = 1.
MODIFY t_dup.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
Use this sample code.
Reward pts if it is helpfull.

Finding Duplicate Entries in a table
I have a table with the following fields in Oracle 10g.
TABLE_1
account_no | tracking_id | trans_amount
Each account_no can have multiple tracking Id's.
How do i query out the duplicate entries of account_no where tracking lies between 1 and 1000 ?
Many thanks in advance for your help,
novice.Hi,
Whenever you have a question, it helps to post a little sample data, and the results you want from that data.
You may think you're explaining clearly, but it won't be nearly as clear to someone who isn't familiar with your tables, your data, and your requirements. Sanjay and I apparantly have different ideas about what you requested, and perhaps neither is what you really want. It would be much harder for us to make mistakes and give you bad advice if you posted the data and results.
Here's my guess:
WITH got_cnt AS
SELECT table_1.*
, COUNT (*) OVER (PARTITION BY account_no)
FROM table_1
WHERE tracking_id BETWEEN 1
AND 1000
SELECT account_no, tracking_id, trans_amount
FROM got_cnt
WHERE cnt > 1
;If there are two rows with the same account_no, and both rows have tracking_id in the given range, then both rows will be displayed. -

Hi everyone
I am a little confused by a situtation I have come across in one of our bespoke tables. I was under the impression that all fields in a table that are marked as Key form a Primary Key and therefore it is <b>impossible</b> to create records where these key fields contain duplciate data. However, I have found a bespoke table that is used for logging exception messages that appears to hold records with duplicates in the Key fields. Has anyone else come across this or have any idea how it might be happening? When creating a table is possible to specify a non-unique key in the same way you might for an internal table?! If it is relevant, the table is updated from a program that locks and unlocks the table before and afer the insert takes place and can be caused by both batch and manual changes.
Thanks
AndyThanks Roopesh
I understood the [ACCEPTING DUPLICATE KEYS] flag to mean that a a 'bulk' insert would not fail if a duplicate entry was identified but instead would set subrc to 4, skip the record in question and continue with subsequent records. If this is the case it still should not actually create duplciate entries - surely in doing so referential integrity is being violated...
Here is the section of code that performs the insert if that helps at all:
*lock table and insert processing log details
CALL FUNCTION 'ENQUEUE_EZLG_T024E'
EXPORTING
MODE_ZLG_T024 = 'E'
MANDT = SY-MANDT
EMPLOYER_REG_NO = zlg_t024-EMPLOYER_REG_NO
GRANT_CLAIM_NO = zlg_t024-GRANT_CLAIM_NO
ITEM = zlg_t024-ITEM
EXCEPTIONS
FOREIGN_LOCK = 1
SYSTEM_FAILURE = 2
OTHERS = 3.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
insert zlg_t024.
* unlock table.
CALL FUNCTION 'DEQUEUE_EZLG_T024E'
EXPORTING
MODE_ZLG_T024 = 'E'
MANDT = SY-MANDT
EMPLOYER_REG_NO = zlg_t024-EMPLOYER_REG_NO

Duplicate Entry in Child Tables in AD Process Form on triggering multipleAP
hi all,
I have a scenarion in which I have to provision AD Group Membership, for addition of each role to User.
so I have created 5 Access policies, 5 roles and mapped AD Group in each access policy.
The roles are comming from trusted source seperated by a string tokenizer.
I have java code which will trigger and assign the role memberhsip to user, one after the other. iterating with the string tokenizer(;)
The problem I see is, I see multiple entries of AD Groups in the process form for each group.
If I add 3 roles to the user, I am seeing 6 entries in the AD Process form. Duplicate row for each and every row. sometimes i see 3 entries for each row. and 1 entry for each row.
If I add the role memberships manually, by searching, then I dont see any problem with the AD child form.
and also If I add a single group membership I dont see any problem with the AD Child form.
I suspect that the event handler tcEvaluateAccessPolicies which is there in the post update is trying to add the duplicate entries as still the AD Group membership which is triggered for the first time is not yet finished by evaluating the access policies again.
any such experiences? thoughts? work arounds?
my oim environment is OIM11.1.1.3.0 on weblogic server.I have always coded these checks into my custom code whenever i maninuplate child table data. When adding, i always check the existing and when deleting, i always check if the value exists that i'm removing. I would suggest you write a piece of code that does the same and keep it in your library of re-usable code.
You could try going to the database and making the field for the name a unique field. I don't know what the outcome will be from doing so.

Duplicate entries in mms_rbs_subscription table
We use a mobile iOS Application which is connected a SUP 2.1 Server. The Application runs fine until a couple of weeks but now we got some synchronisation problems. Some users don't get data changes on their devices.
Probably we have identified one possible reason for these synchronisation problem.
In the CDB we have duplicate entries in the mm_rbs_subscription table. Duplicate means, that for one device_id there are two or three remote_ids in this table. We dont know the reason, but we assume that these entries were created during our iOS7 Migration.
Maybe this entries are one of the reasons for our current synchronisation problems.
Did anybody know, how which entries would be created? And is it possible to delete entries in the mms_subscription table?Hi Shiv,
thanks for your answer. In our Application every MBO is collected in a cachegroup. We have 5 cachegroups, including the default cache group, every cache group contains round about 1 to 5 MBOs.
What do you mean with "Partition" option. The cache group policy is configured to scheduled, so i can't set a partition option here.. Is there any other possibility to set a "partition" option?
Best regards,

Prevent duplicate outputs within a table?
Hi at all,
we have a table in a subform. At the moment there are several lines with the same material. This is ok.
Is it possible to prevent duplicate output in the form? We want to print out the rest of this line but set the material to blank.
I tried this with scripting with java script:
If (data.TF.DATA.field.rawValue == data.TF.DATA[-1].field.rawValue)
data.TF.DATA.field.rawValue = "";
Is it possible to point on the previous line with
DATA[-1]
This works for the conditional break so I hope this will works too.
I don`t want to use group levels...
Thanks.
TimoThanks for your answer.
It works.
data.formular.DATA.field::ready:layout - (FormCalc, client)
If ($.rawValue == data.form.DATA[-1].field.rawValue) then
this.presence = "hidden";

How can I restore corrupt form history and prevent duplicate entries?
After having used 3.6.2, I recently upgraded to the latest version because I was getting tired of sites not working properly. For the most part, the transition has gone smoothly, but I lost all of my form history. It's not a huge deal, but having it was incredibly convenient for me. Instead of continuing to make all new form history entries, is it possible to use the old ones again? I have the original formhistory.sqlite file, but whenever I try to use it, it gets renamed to formhistory.sqlite.corrupt and Firefox creates a new file. Is the original too old and incompatible or is there something I can do?
Also, I'm having a bit of an issue with Firefox regularly creating duplicate form history entries. For instance, when opening the list for a Username text field, "ZombieToast" will be listed twice. I delete the duplicates when I come across them, but they keep sprouting up and I don't know why.hello, the duplicate form entries are a bug in firefox 23 and will be fixed in the upcoming version.
please also [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/ update your plugins] (some of them are out-dated & have security vulnerabilities that are actively exploited on the web). -

Duplicate Entries in Internal table
Hi All,
As per my requirement
1. The internal table is the input.
2. I need the duplicate records of the internal table with the combination of 2 key fields.
3. I should not use SORT because i need the index number in order as per in the table .
EX : Take Table MSEG.
Take key fields as MBLNR and WERKS.
I want the duplicate records of the combination of these 2 key fields.
The *Index Number * should not to be changed as per the table entry. ( So i avoided sorting the internal table)
Kindly give some solutions.
Thanks,
Pradeep.

Edited by: Vinod Kumar on Mar 1, 2012 4:59 PMHi Pradeep,
Try this...
first you copy your internal table to another temporary table of same type.
itab_temp[] = itab[].
sort itab_temp[].
DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM ITAB COMPARING MBLNR WERKS.
LOOP AT ITAB_TEMP INTO WA_ITAB1.
DO.
READ TABLE ITAB INTO WA_ITAB2 WITH KEY MBLNR = WA_ITAB1-MBLNR AND WERKS = WA_ITAB1-WERKS.
IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
APPEND WA_ITAB2 TO ITAB_NEW.
ELSE.
EXIT.
ENDIF.
ENDDO.
ENDLOOP.
you may get the duplicate records in itab_new. -
Duplicate Entries in Internal Tables
Hallo Friends,
It Would be nice if some one let me know, if there is a way in ABAP to select the duplicates records in an internal tables.
Lets say I have two internal tabels, itabA have following structure:
BNAME | WORKAREA | ROLES
abc | wa1 | ro1
cde | wa1 | ro1
cde | wa3 | rol..
abc | wa2 | rol2
xyz | wa1 | rol3
xyz | wa3 | rol2..
the itabB have the following structure:
WORKAREA | ROLES|
wa1 | rol1
wa2 | rol1
wa3 | rol1
wa4 | rol1
Now problem is, I need to select the common WorkAreas from itabA ( which is commom in all BNAME ) in above example it will be workarea wa1. as it is commom in all i.e ( abc ,cde and xyz). I need to select this commom workarea, and then mark it with some flage in itabB ( to display that this workarea is common among the users...)
Would be nice if some one let me know, is there any way I can select the duplicate rows in an internal table or I have to go one by one and then do some kind of comparision.
Many thanks,
Thx in advance....
HaiderHi marek,
below information might help you.
The first criterion for comparing internal tables is the number of lines they contain. The more lines an internal table contains, the larger it is. If two internal tables contain the same number of lines, they are compared line by line, component by component. If components of the table lines are themselves internal tables, they are compared recursively. If you are testing internal tables for anything other than equality, the comparison stops when it reaches the first pair of components that are unequal, and returns the corresponding result.
DATA: BEGIN OF LINE,
COL1 TYPE I,
COL2 TYPE I,
END OF LINE.
DATA: ITAB LIKE TABLE OF LINE,
JTAB LIKE TABLE OF LINE.
DO 3 TIMES.
LINE-COL1 = SY-INDEX.
LINE-COL2 = SY-INDEX ** 2.
APPEND LINE TO ITAB.
ENDDO.
MOVE ITAB TO JTAB.
LINE-COL1 = 10. LINE-COL2 = 20.
APPEND LINE TO ITAB.
IF ITAB GT JTAB.
WRITE / 'ITAB GT JTAB'.
ENDIF.
APPEND LINE TO JTAB.
IF ITAB EQ JTAB.
WRITE / 'ITAB EQ JTAB'.
ENDIF.
LINE-COL1 = 30. LINE-COL2 = 80.
APPEND LINE TO ITAB.
IF JTAB LE ITAB.
WRITE / 'JTAB LE ITAB'.
ENDIF.
LINE-COL1 = 50. LINE-COL2 = 60.
APPEND LINE TO JTAB.
IF ITAB NE JTAB.
WRITE / 'ITAB NE JTAB'.
ENDIF.
IF ITAB LT JTAB.
WRITE / 'ITAB LT JTAB'.
ENDIF.
The output is:
ITAB GT JTAB
ITAB EQ JTAB
JTAB LE ITAB
ITAB NE JTAB
ITAB LT JTAB
This example creates two standard tables, ITAB and JTAB. ITAB is filled with 3 lines and copied to JTAB. Then, another line is appended to ITAB and the first logical expression tests whether ITAB is greater than JTAB. After appending the same line to JTAB, the second logical expression tests whether both tables are equal. Then, another line is appended to ITAB and the third logical expressions tests whether JTAB is less than or equal to ITAB. Next, another line is appended to JTAB. Its contents are unequal to the contents of the last line of ITAB. The next logical expressions test whether ITAB is not equal to JTAB. The first table field whose contents are different in ITAB and JTAB is COL1 in the last line of the table: 30 in ITAB and 50 in JTAB. Therefore, in the last logical expression, ITAB is less than JTAB.
