Public bug reported:

Issue: It is easy to create duplicate records using the Vandelay loader
for Acquisitions with the following conditions:

1.	Import Non-Matching – selected
2.	Match-Only Merge – selected
3.	Match Set Field – blank

The load will load all the incoming  records as Match Set Field is blank
and the system does not match on anything. This  creates duplicate
records.

Solution:  Add validation / error or user warning before loading match-
only records with a blank match set.

The workaround is to set up the library’s profiles for a match set.  The
settings are sticky so when they return to that screen they should have
the proper parameters in place which would prevent the duplicates from
happening.
