FAQ: How do I handle a Duplicate Error in my Capital Request Import?

Validation Error - Duplicate Name Field

If you are receiving this validation error for duplicate names, ensure each Capital Request has a unique title. 

If your import spreadsheet contains a request with the same title as a request in the system, the import will fail. 

Need to update an existing Request already in the system?

You can use the Update tab in the Request Manager to download a template specifically for updating existing capital requests.
