========================
Deduplicate contacts OCA
========================

This module installs the deduplicate wizard from Odoo CRM, but without the
dependency on the CRM module and with some extra features.

The extra features are:

- Can be installed with or without the CRM module
- Deduplicate also on `ref` (partner reference)
- To deduplicate only a subset of partners (eg. one category), the context
  variable `extra_domain` may contain a domain string to search on before
  deduplicating. (TODO: offer this in the wizard)
- A function `deduplicate_on_field(self, field, domain=[]):` is added to the
  `res.partner` object. It takes the field to deduplicate on as a parameter,
  as well as the domain mentioned above. It can be called from `ir.cron`
  Automated Actions.

Installation
============

To install this module, you need to have `crm` module present on the system.
This is because we reuse the existing code from Odoo CRM.


Known issues
============

If this module is installed, `crm` module installation gives an error.
Workaround for this is to remove this module, install `crm`, then install
this module again.
