    First you need to export all the data from the crm in Excel then update same Excel file and re import it in crm. It will upsert the records

    or you can use Kingswaysoft tool to upsert the records

    Hi jmancini77,

    I recommend using the Upsert action in the CDS/CRM Destination Component found in the KingswaySoft SSIS Integration Toolkit for Microsoft Dynamics 365.

    Hi,

    Follow the below steps to update the data without creating duplicates.

    1. By using “EXPORT to EXCEL” option Export the data from the CRM.
    2. Once exported, make the required changes in the file.
    3. Upload the Excel file in the CRM back, while uploading you need to keep Allow Duplicates file OFF (as per below screen short)

    This will update the existing records without creating duplicates of the record.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks!
