Dear all,

I am very new for Opencats system, actually I just installed it yesterday.

What I found today is it does not detect a duplicate candidate. I try to entry a duplicate name and last name in the system and both of them is show in a separate candidate.

So, it would be appreciated if anyone could suggest me how to set Opencats to detect a duplicate candidate.


Thank you very much.

At first welcome to the Opencats communty!

It is true that Opencats hasn't got a check on a duplicate person but do you really want to?

I think it's verry frustrating when you are spending time entering all the data and at the end when you want to save it Opencats pops up: "Allready known person"
It's possible to program Opencats in a way that makes it checks after entering the first and last name and e-mail adres.
But i'ts more easier just to look up with : "Quick Search"
Just as fast and the same result.

By the way: If the same person gives a reaction to a vacancy from the "carreer site" there is a check.

Or else you can also use visit the "Quick search" in Candidates tab to quick check if the email was already inputed or not.
