I would have to agree with Sally. Duplicate Address Book numbers is a
problem that arises with all JDE users. The most common way to handle it,
is to identify those records and to give them a different search type.
Alternatively, you can put a message on the Address Book record to alert a
user to it's status. I would also go in to the A/P and A/R screens
(Customer and Supplier detail) within the duplicate records and prevent the
entry of further vouchers/invoices.
Transferring the history associated with these records would be an ugly task
in my opinion.

I have not done this personally, but duplicate address book records is a
problem for everyone (duplicate Address Book numbers for the same
person/business). If you have your cross reference files built, check out
Name: AN8, Type: N, To Display: F for all files where AN8 is used. I am not
sure I would tackle it, but will see what others on the list think. What we
have done in the past is put a flash message on the ones we did not want
anyone to use, and change the A/R and A/P flags to N, so they cannot be used
for booking any new transactions.
