"Detect Duplicate Cards" (≥V4.80):
For more information on this option, please
see “Additional Information section > Detect
Duplicate Cards”.
Shared users can have up to 20 custom
information categories (user fields) as usual
(such as: position, department, vehicle
plate, etc.). However, for shared users,
these fields can be "single-line edit" only
(i.e., values are typed in instead of being
selected from a list).
How this is implemented:
 If the accounts are defined with 'single-line
edit' user fields, any user-field values for the
shared users will apply to the assigned
accounts.
Note: In this case, user-field values will also be
updated for all applicable accounts if changed for a
shared user in any one of the accounts.
 For any accounts with some other type of
custom user fields (e.g., multi-line edit, or
drop lists), the custom user-field data is
retained and managed separately within
each account, and any shared 'custom-
user-field' data will be ignored.
Screen Reference
Steps / Detail
Custom-user-fields for shared users are
initially configured separately for each account.
To implement shared 'custom-user-fields',
these fields must be defined with the same
usage and order for all applicable accounts,
and they must be set as 'single-line edit' fields.
