After running the Duplicates tool, what is the recommended next step?

After running the Duplicates tool, the recommended next step is manual inspection of results. This is crucial because the Duplicates tool identifies records that have matching values in specified fields, but it does not automatically determine which duplicates should be kept or removed. By reviewing the results manually, you can decide how to handle each group of duplicates based on the context of your data and the specific needs of your analysis. This ensures more accurate and relevant results, as the process of resolving duplicates often requires nuanced decisions that cannot be made solely by automated processes.

In contrast, automated data cleaning may not take into account the context or specific business rules that you need to apply when dealing with duplicates, and simply re-running the Duplicates tool might yield the same results without resolving the underlying issue. Using the Sample tool on the results would not be beneficial either, as it would only allow you to see a subset of duplicates instead of providing a comprehensive overview necessary for informed decision-making.
