What is a Data Conflict?
A data conflict exists when records that should be equivalent contain
conflicting data in one or more mapped fields. Mapped fields are fields
that are linked for transfer in the Field Mapping dialog. See
The Field
Mapping Dialog
in this chapter for information on field mapping.
More specifically, a data conflict exists when two records contain the
same
key field
values, but different values in other mapped fields.
Key Fields
Fields designated as key are those that are the most fundamental to a
particular record. For example, name fields are key fields in Address
Book records.
