Idea:

Moveworks can already identify duplicate users, but there is currently no simple way for admins to resolve or prioritise which account should be treated as the authoritative record.

Problem

  • Many organisations have multiple user records with the same email due to contractors, rehires, identity migrations, or HR system design.
  • When duplicates exist, user attributes such as location, cost centre, manager, or department can be sourced from the wrong profile.
  • Administrators must manually investigate and clean data in source systems.

Suggested Enhancement Add a Duplicate User Resolution feature that allows admins to:

  • Select the preferred record when duplicates are detected.
  • Configure prioritisation rules (e.g. Team Member > Contractor > Short Term).
  • Set source-of-truth precedence for user attributes.
  • View and remediate duplicate users from a single admin interface.

Benefits

  • Reduces manual administration.
  • Improves user identity matching accuracy.
  • Prevents missing or incorrect profile attributes.
  • Helps customers with complex identity environments without requiring perfect source-system data hygiene.
