Need to find duplicates in a column? Now you can learn how to quickly find duplicates or unique values in the program.

Unique values

Let's open the module "Visits" .

Patient visits

Now we automatically select the primary "patients" who came to see the doctor for the first time. To do this, we go to the command we already know "Conditional Formatting" .

Important Please read why you will not be able to read the instructions in parallel and work in the window that appears.

If you still have formatting rules from the previous examples, delete them all.

Remove conditional formatting rules

Then add a new data formatting rule using the ' New ' button.

Conditional formatting window

Next, select the ' Format unique values only ' value from the list. Then click on the ' Format ' button and make the font bold.

Condition for highlighting unique values

Apply this formatting style to the ' Patient ' column.

The condition for highlighting unique values is applied to a specific field

As a result, we will see primary patients. These will be the records for the selected time period, which are displayed in the list only once.

In the same way, you can find all duplicates. Let's highlight in a different color the names of patients who appear in the list of visits more than once. To do this, add a new formatting condition.

Condition for highlighting duplicate values

Both formatting conditions must be applied to the same field.

Applying both conditions to the same field

Now in the list of visits, our regular patients are highlighted in a pleasant green color.
