MTS Duplicate Check is a SuiteCRM 8 plugin that warns users about duplicate records in real time — before anything is saved. When a match is found, a popup shows the existing records so users can decide whether to proceed or update the one already in the system.

Release Notes

MTS Duplicate Check — Release Notes

Version 1.0.0 (2026-05-14)

Initial Release

New Features

Real-Time Duplicate Detection - Duplicate check runs automatically as users fill in the form — no need to click Save first - Works on Create and Edit forms across any configured module - When editing an existing record, the system excludes that record from the results so it never flags itself - Shows up to 5 matching records per check

Admin Configuration - Admins can set up duplicate checking for any module from a dedicated admin panel - Choose which fields to use for matching and which fields to show in the results popup - Up to 3 display fields can be selected to help users identify the matched record at a glance - Each module has its own independent configuration - Enable or disable checking per module without losing your settings

Duplicate Results Popup - When a duplicate is found, a clear warning popup appears before the record is saved - Results are shown in a clean table with a row for each matching record - Record names appear as clickable links — users can open the existing record in a new tab to review it - The popup shows the total number of matches found - Users choose to proceed with saving or go back to the form

Email Address Matching - Email fields can be selected as a check field - Matching is case-insensitive, so "Info@Company.com" and "info@company.com" are treated the same

Custom Field Support - Custom fields added via Studio or Module Builder can be used as check fields or display fields

Multi-Language Support - English and German language packs included - All popup messages and admin labels are fully translated

Security - All user-entered values are safely handled before any comparison is made - Only administrators can access the configuration panel - License is verified before any duplicate check runs — the plugin is inactive without a valid license

License - Activated via the SuiteCRM Store - License is validated weekly in the background — no interruption to normal use


Known Limitations

  • One configuration per module — if you need different rules for the same module, update the existing configuration
  • The field that triggers the duplicate check is selected automatically; manual selection is not available in this version
  • Email address cannot be the trigger field — another field in your configuration is used for that
  • Up to 5 duplicate records are shown in the popup; additional matches beyond 5 are not displayed
  • If any configured check field is left blank on the form, the duplicate check is skipped for that submission
  • Bulk import or export of configurations is not available in this version

Version 1.2.0
