Address Duplicates

Duplicate addresses may unknowingly be entered in Circulation. For example, a Customer Service associate might misspell a street name during an address find and so add the address again. This can cause your TM draw and other figures to be inaccurate.

To locate duplicate addresses:

• Select Address Duplicates from the Management menu to display the Duplicate Addresses Report window.

• Click Add and enter the publication for which the report should be run and the criteria that should be used to decide what addresses are duplicates. The three possible criteria are displayed on window.

• Click OK and then Continue to produce the report.

Note: Addresses are matched based only on criteria you specify. Therefore, List #2 is most reliable for listing actual address duplicates. Choose List #1 or List #3 when you want to list addresses that are close but not exact.
