Duplicate locations

[Sai Cerni]

Hello,

I have duplicates in cmn_location table and having data in all the duplicate records. I want to merge those records into one record. Can someone help me with the script.

Hi @Sai Cerni ,

 This is a very complex coding required, follow this sample script and use your location table :

//Query data from location 1

var gr1 = new GlideRecord ( ' table_name ' ) ;

gr1.addQuery ( 'location ' , ' location_1 ') ;

gr1.query();

// Query data from location 2

var gr2 = new GlideRecord('table_name');

gr2.addQuery('location', 'location_2');

gr2.query();

// Merge data from location 1 and location 2

while (gr1.next()) { gr2.addQuery('sys_id', gr1.sys_id);

gr2.query();

if (!gr2.next()) { gr2.initialize(); gr2.location = 'location_1_2_merged';

gr2.sys_id = gr1.sys_id;

gr2.update();

}

}
