# Review duplicate result details

Review duplicate result details to compare a record with the records the assessment identified as its duplicates before you decide how to resolve them.

## Prerequisites

An assessment run has produced duplicate failures.

## Steps

1. Press **Alt+Q** to open the **Tell Me** search.
2. Enter **Validation History** and select the page from the results.
3. Select the assessment run that contains duplicate results, and then select **Show Log**.
4. In the **Quality Assessment Exception Log**, select a result line where **Check Type** is **Duplicate**.
5. Select **View Duplicate Lines**. The **Duplicate Result Details** page opens.
6. Compare the details of the source record and each duplicate candidate.

| Field | Description |
| --- | --- |
| Source Record | The record being evaluated. |
| Duplicate Candidate Record | A record identified as a possible duplicate. |
| Matching Fields | The fields used to compare the records. |
| Matching Values | The values that matched. |
| Duplicate Check ID | The duplicate check that produced the match. |
| Outcome | Whether the result is an error or a warning. |

### Results

You can see exactly why two records were flagged as duplicates, which helps you decide whether to merge or correct one of them or to accept the deviation.
