List Update Behavior - Manually Add an Element vs Import the Element

rvoiculet

Hello, 

 

I have noticed a behavior on the list updates and I am not sure if this is normal, or is it something I am doing wrong.

 

I have the S2 Supplier list that is updated by users, based on a module, where they enter the name of the supplier and the parent. Next an import action is run to update the S2 Supplier list based on the module.

What I noticed is that if the parent and supplier are identical in the module, then the lines are ignored.

 

But, if the update is done manually in the list, and I add a supplier with the same name of the parent, it works without any problem.

 

How is this possible? Am I missing anything?

 

Thank you, 

Ruxandra

Thank you for your answers, I was more curious if this is the expected behavior, as yes, I am adding a suffix while creating the element via import. But I did not understand how adding it manually it works.
