  • 1.  Exclude Records from Matching - MDM

    Posted 21 hours ago

    Hi Team,

    We have a requirement to mark certain records for not merging once a Boolean attribute is set on an entity (Let's say DO_NOT_MERGE). One way to do that is by including this attribute across all match rules. However, the flip side is that if there are 2 entities with all other attributes matching and we have this attribute populated as Y for both of them, they would eventually become match candidates which is not desirable. Is there a way to ensure that when this attribute is set,  we can completely exclude them from Matching in the first place. Appreciate your help!

    Hi Vijaya,

    instead of comparing the values, use the 'equals' or 'not equals' comparator which lets you test for a particular value.  So if you are using an AND condition 'DO_NOT_MERGE' EQUALS false then it will be a merge candidate.  You are probably better off making it  a negative compare to account for times the attribute is not populated.
