First case:
Create a user and login to the end user portal of this user
and create
the following contacts with the below mentioned fields :
1.First name : Aadya ; Last name : Sen ; Phone : 123
2.First name : Aadya ; Last name : Sen ; Phone : 123
I have added two contacts with same first name, last name
and phone
number which are mandatory fields but the user is NOT
ALERTED with any
message that the contact already exists. When there are
large number of
contacts in the phonebook , if the user is not alerted ,
unnecessary
duplicate entries will be present in the phonebook.
Shall I raise a bug for this?
Created http://track.sipfoundry.org/browse/XX-7962 for the first case.
Second case : Create a contact with following details :
1.First name : Saanvi ; Last name : Sen ; Phone : 456
2.First name : Ananya ; Last name : Sen ; Phone : 456
While creating the SECOND contact in the second case, user
should be
alerted with a ALERT MESSAGE something like "Phone number
is already in
use for Saanvi, do you want to continue?" If the user says
yes, the same
phone number should be saved with two different names
otherwise this
should not be allowed.
For the second case, creation of contacts with SAME contact number with
different names is acceptable in the real life usage ( Checked the same
with my Nokia handset which works fine) but before letting to create the
second contact, an alert message should to be thrown alerting the user
that the contact number is in use for xxx user, do you want to continue?
Third case : Create a contact with following details :
1.First name : Amogh ; Last name : Sen ; Phone : 789
2.First name : Amogh ; Last name : Sen ; Phone : 666
While creating the SECOND contact in the third case, user
should be
alerted with a ALERT MESSAGE something like "Contact name
already
exists, do you want to replace? If user says yes , then
number has to be
replaced otherwise user should not be let to create two
contacts with same name.
Is this expected behavior or should I raise improvements for second case and
third case.
For the third case, creation of contacts with the already existing name
but with different contact number is not acceptable(Checked with the
phonebook in my Nokia handset) , sipXconfig should search and compare
and throw an alert message something like "Name already exists, do you
want to replace?"
Can improvements be raised for second and third case?
I just tried to create 2 accounts in gmail with the same name and is working just fine.
I also tried the mentioned scenarios on the iPhone phonebook (though not sure if it's the best phonebook behavior to compare with) - it doesn't enforce any of the above.
IMO we should not enable this constraints (will also introduce overhead on
creating new entry / importing from csv or gmail - phonebook entries will have
to be searched and compared for each)
