Duplicated entries on customer upload

Posted on by 92
Hello,
 
I have loaded  Customers on Buiness Central using table 18. I left the customer number blank. I wanted Business central to generate the customer numbers as a test (experiment).
 
However, once the data has been loaded, BC has duplicated te entries. Any ideas why this is happening?
 
Thank you

    Customer Number is the primary key. If you leave it blank, as far as I know, the Configuration Package will consider it the same data.
    You can assign numbers in Excel according to the No. Series rules and then import them.

    Hi Sami,
     
    I assigned a number series in BC in the sales & receivables set up. But not to the customers in the config package that i uploaded. I wanted to see if BC would automatically assign numbers
     
    Thanks

    Hi,

    How did you load the customers? Did you assign a number series to the customers when importing the data?

    Regards
    Sam
