The duplicate finder routinely goes through your database looking for records that could be duplicates. When it finds possible matches, it scores them and lists them for you under:

Tools > Data Integrity > Duplicate Finder.

Clicking on a row will take you to the duplicate detail screen.

The top row represents the source record, and the rows below represent possible duplicate records. If any of these rows are duplicates, you can select them and select the ti ti-users icon in the grid footer to merge them. Each record has a series of buttons to the right. These buttons perform the actions defined below.

You can view the Record Source to see where each person record was added. For more details, see the Record Sources article. 

Detail-minded admins might be interested in how the percentages are calculated for duplicate records. The out-of-the-box logic compares two records based on a points system. Points are awarded based on the following factors:

A percentage is then calculated by comparing the number of points scored to the total possible points.
