# Validation for Duplicate Department Names with Exception Handling

This feature introduces a global validation mechanism to prevent duplicate department names within the same customer across Zenople. When creating, transferring, or importing departments, the system will trigger a Severe Exception if a duplicate department name is detected.

## Functionality

- A new warning exception is created for when a same customer has duplicate department names.
- This exception is carried out in the following cases:
  1. New Department creation (Exception Stage: New Department)
  2. Transfer Department (Exception Stage: Transfer Department)
  3. Customer Detail Page (Exception Stage: Customer Detail)
  4. Edit Customer (Exception Stage: Edit Customer)

**Note:** To enable the exception follow the following steps:

- Navigate to the Exception navigation in ATM application.
- Search for the new exception in the required exception stage.
- Select the exception and select on the edit icon.
- Change the Status to: "Active".
