Trouble with duplicate entries with FORMS

Diego Casillas Zaragoza

Hello,

I created a form for requests but I am seeing a lot of duplicate entries. I am trying the following formula with no success.

Does anyone have any other ideas?

You need to adjust your COUNTIFS

COUNTIFS([QN Number]:[QN Number], @cell = [QN Number]@row)

Paul,

thanks for your response. my problem is, I need to move the duplicate entry to another sheet but with this formula, both identical entries turn to duplicate.

I still need to keep one of the entries to perform the work requested. I can't seem to be able to do that

You will need to insert an Auto-Number type column (called "Auto" in this example and formatting doesn't matter) as well as a text/number type column (called "Row" in this example) with the following column formula:

=MATCH(Auto@row, Auto:Auto, 0)

Then you would adjust the COUNTIFS like so:

COUNTIFS([QN Number]:[QN Number], @cell = [QN Number]@row, Row:Row, @cell<= Row@row)
