Transform Map Inserts New Records Instead of Updating Existing RecordsIssue <!-- /*NS Branding Styles*/ --> .ns-kb-css-body-editor-container { p { font-size: 12pt; font-family: Lato; color: var(--now-color--text-primary, #000000); } span { font-size: 12pt; font-family: Lato; color: var(--now-color--text-primary, #000000); } h2 { font-size: 24pt; font-family: Lato; color: var(--now-color--text-primary, black); } h3 { font-size: 18pt; font-family: Lato; color: var(--now-color--text-primary, black); } h4 { font-size: 14pt; font-family: Lato; color: var(--now-color--text-primary, black); } a { font-size: 12pt; font-family: Lato; color: var(--now-color--link-primary, #00718F); } a:hover { font-size: 12pt; color: var(--now-color--link-primary, #024F69); } a:target { font-size: 12pt; color: var(--now-color--link-primary, #032D42); } a:visited { font-size: 12pt; color: var(--now-color--link-primary, #00718f); } ul { font-size: 12pt; font-family: Lato; } li { font-size: 12pt; font-family: Lato; } img { display: ; max-width: ; width: ; height: ; } } During an import using a Transform Map, new records are created in the target table instead of updating an existing record, even when the required fields are configured with Coalesce = true. The behavior occurs when one of the coalesce fields is a reference field and the incoming value does not resolve to the expected referenced record.

When this field is blank, the transform uses the referenced record's sys_id for the lookup by default. If the source sends a display value such as the referenced record name instead of the sys_id, the reference is not resolved correctly. Because the reference value does not match, the existing target record is not identified through coalesce and a new record can be inserted.

Testing confirmed that once the referenced record's sys_id was supplied, the reference resolved correctly and the existing target record was updated instead of creating a new record. If the source must provide another value such as the referenced record name, configure Referenced value field name in the field mapping with the appropriate field from the referenced table. Ensure the configured reference lookup field matches the value being provided by the source.
