When you save a Business Contact record with the same name or e-mail address as one that already exists in your Business Contacts folder, Business Contact Manager for Outlook displays a A duplicate item has been detected dialog box, prompting you to either add the new record or update the existing record with information from the new Business Contact record.

If you add a new record (record: A completed Account, Business Contact, or Opportunity form. The record contains Account, Business Contact, or Opportunity information, plus the other records and items that are linked to it.), a new Business Contact record will be added to your Business Contacts folder with the same name as the existing record. To distinguish between the two records, you can add an identifier to the name in either one of the Business Contact records.

If you update an existing record, Business Contact Manager for Outlook compares all the fields and replaces conflicting data with the data from the new record.
