Product Installation
Prior to package installation, it is best practice to ensure that you have a fresh backup of your Sugar instance. Although this is not required, it is recommended whenever installing new extensions to your application.
Caution: As with any package installation, this will cause a system refresh and data being processed may be interrupted. We recommend you complete the installation at a time with low system usage.
If you are installing an updated version of your existing Sugashop product, ensure that any previously installed version of the package is uninstalled before installing an updated version in your Sugar instance. Please see the Uninstallation Guide for more information.

Duplicate Lead Detective Settings
Module Selection
A System Administration user can choose which modules to include in the Lead duplicate checks. The Sugar stock modules to choose from and selected by default are:
- Accounts
- Contacts
- Leads
In Sugar, navigate to: Admin > Sugashop™ by Sugabyte – Duplicate Lead Detective for SugarCRM > Duplicate Lead Detective Settings.
To remove a module, simply click the ‘x’ in the module name tag. Disabled modules will not be displayed in the Duplicate Lead Detective dashlet.
To enable a module, click into the field and choose a module from the dropdown list.
Field Selection
Choose which fields should be enabled for duplicate checks and their importance on determining a duplication.
The following Sugar stock fields can be included in duplicate checks against your Lead record:
- Accounts: Account Name, Phone, Email
- Contacts: Contact Name, Phone, Email
- Leads: Contact Name, Account Name, Phone, Email
The ‘Contact Name‘ will cross-check the combination of Sugars’ stock First and Last Name.
The ‘Phone‘ will cross-check Sugars’ stock Phone-type fields.
The ‘Email‘ will cross-check Sugars’ stock Primary Email Address fields.
Note: The module and field labels above may differ in your system if these were modified.
Select the level of importance for each field on determining a duplication:
- Warning: Critical duplication identified.
- Caution: Less severe or coincidental duplication identified.
- Do Not Use: Excluded from duplicate checks.
By default, the Email will be marked as ‘Warning’, the remaining fields are marked as ‘Caution’. These will be displayed in the dashlet with a coloured label.
