About DC Local

Duplicate Check Local is an application that can be installed on any laptop or computer. It is installed either on the same machine as where you use Dynamics 365 (DC Local), or on a different machine (DC Local Server Mode‍). The advantage of DC Local on your own machine is that it offers slightly more features, while with DC Local Server Mode you can have DC Local installed on a separate machine without the need for all users to install it on their own device.

Use Duplicate Check Local to run DC Jobs: process records in bulk, using the processing power of your local device. DC Local processes data on a local machine and returns results to Dynamics 365. These results can then be used in further user actions in the Dynamics environment.

The Process

Duplicate check local will download your encrypted data via a secured connection from Dynamics 365.

When starting a Duplicate Check Job in DC Local, encrypted records in Dynamics 365 are temporarily stored on your local machine until all duplicate results are found. When the job is finished, results are pushed back to Dynamics 365, where you can review the results and merge records if needed. The encrypted records will automatically be removed from your local device, keeping it 100% safe and secure.

Depending on the speed of your internet connection and the amount of data you want to process with DC Local, job completion time may vary.
