Hello,

 

Since "acc" is a list you cannot directly access its field value.
You need to specify which record's field you need to access like

acc[0].Name.addError('you cannot create duplicate Account');   

 which gets the first record from the list.

 

Hope this will solve the issue. Please mark it as the solution if it does.

 

thanks
