SSO Authentication Issue with Duplicate User Entries in spuserexternalid Table

Hi,

Just a heads-up: Occasionally, when a user is created, deleted, and then recreated, they might be registered multiple times in the spuserexternalid table. This can lead to SSO authentication problems.

A quick solution is to manually remove the duplicate entries from the spuserexternalid table. However, for a more permanent fix, it would be beneficial to address this in future updates of the Specify-7 software.

Cheers
