Hello everyone!

How do you think why CRM doesn`t allow to create some keys?

All fields have a text type.

And how the first two keys will work together?

1) forbid to create records: (name1, phone1)&(name1, phone1) and (name2, email2)&(name2, email2)

2) frobid to create records: (name3, phone3, email3)&(name3, phone3, email3)

Thank you for your attention!

    if you can't create an alternate key combining two fields, normally means that you have already records in your CRM with duplicates with the combination of the alternate key
