I have the same needs for duplicate checker and am happy to split the workload.

My very next project absolutely requires that. The duplicates don't come from eCommerce, BUT still... I'm not gonna prompt users about possible duplicates when they enter data (want to accelerate initial data entry effort). I'll need a webtool for the admin (or other permitted parties) to periodically reconcile duplicate Party(s). Will be doing it soon. Let me know what criteria should be checked? So far, I'm just thinking "name, postal code, birthdate, mobile phone number". Note that my application mandates the entry of birthdate, not so for ecommerce apps. Help me do something that is also usable by ecommerce side? Thanks. Jonathon Jacques Le Roux wrote: > Yes this sounds interesting, to me at least.
