Possible Duplicate Applicants
Every applicant whose name matches another record together with the date of birth or an email or phone. Open both to compare. Different people: choose Not a duplicate and say why (or say why when saving with Create anyway), and the pair leaves this list.

The rules that apply here
Everything on this screen obeys the platform rules rather than rules of its own. The ones worth knowing before you use it:
- Narrowing a list — search, conditions, sort, totals, export and saved views.
- What may be changed — the five grounds a record may not be edited on.
- Companies and business units — what the switcher above this list is doing to it.
