Is there a way to configure some processing when the user enters a duplicated value in a key field?
For example, we have BusinessName as one of the key fields because we don't want it duplicated, so as a result the user merely gets a Duplicate Key error when they try to save. I'd like to pull up the entry for them to edit if that happens instead of just giving the error.
Even better would be that as the name is typed into the input form, a list of all matching names would show below (just like Quickbooks lookups) and the user could just select for edit or continue to type to make it unique.

Hi John,
Thank you for your purchase.
Unfortunately something like this is not possible with the plugin build in features at the moment and it require some code customization.
But your idea is quite interesting and I will add it in our TODO list so we can maybe implement some similar feature for the future releases.
Best regards.
Kind Regards,

Hello Bogdan,
Are there any update on the issue "preventing duplicate values on key fileds?"
We also need a solution for duplicate values.
Kind regards,
Bulent
HI Bulent,
Unfortunately we are currently finished developing new Addon and adding some features that are more requested from our users.
Your suggestion is on our TODO list and I hope that it will be included in some of our future updates.
Best regards.
