Follow these steps to activate a Duplicate Check license for your sandbox.
You can only create a sandbox license from your production organization.

  1. Navigate to the DC Setup - View License.
  2. At 'Sandbox Licenses', click 'Add Sandbox'.
  3. At 'Sandbox Name', enter a name for your sandbox. Any name is accepted here.
  4. At 'Organization ID', fill in the Organization ID of your sandbox.
  5. Click 'Add'. Your sandbox license is now activated.

In some occasions, you get the following error:

"Custom Field *** is configured in a scenario, but custom fields are not licensed." 

You need to perform a hard license refresh in the Sandbox. You can do this by executing the following code in Developer Console > Debug > Open Execute Anonymous Window:

Database.executeBatch(new dupcheck.dc3LicenseBatch());
