You can use the Create Documents From Reference Files command to resolve duplicates resulting from multiple different files with the same name sharing a master-reference file relationship. The master file remains attached to the document, but a new document is created for each reference file with the master files and the reference files related by the SPFReferenceFile relationship definition
-
On the To Do List page, select a duplicate document from the Duplicate Documents pane to display the files attached to it in the Duplicate Files for Document pane.
-
Click Create Documents From Reference Files to create new documents for each reference file and relate the reference files to the master file.

The following occurs, if you have one master file (file1.dwg) and two reference files (file1.tiff and file1.png) attached to a duplicate document (doc1):
-
The master file (file1.dwg) remains attached to the document (doc1) and the document is resolved since only a single file remains attached to it.
-
Two distinctly named documents are created, one for each reference file.
-
The master file is related to both of the reference files by the SPFReferenceFile relationship definition.
