Question or clarification why winning source system are not shown in correct order?

  • 1.  Question or clarification why winning source system are not shown in correct order?

    Posted 09-24-2021 02:31
    I have recognized a couple strange behavior in the Reltio GUI on "sources" tab.
    There are maybe a logical explanation but i dont see it. Could someone please advice or explain? 

    As screenshot below show, there are 3 source systems, where the source system are defined as Rule Type and the correct data are populating the "Applied operational Value" in regards to the "Source Sequence" Rule type. But in the GUI the order in Winning source system have chosen another source system. Why, it does not seem logical?
    And also for two of the attributes it only shows one occurence of a source system,  and that is the winning system. But in the other two fields the GUI shows all three of the source systems and then not in the right order according to Rule type "Source Sequence". Why?

    Hello Trond, 

    Is the scenario in line with the below documentation:

    Source System. The user provides a priority list of sources. A list of priority is defined for a mapping, if it’s absent, it is taken from the priority list of the group. All crosswalks from a source system with the highest priority become winners, all values of those crosswalks also become winners.
    Note: The following apply:
    • If an attribute doesn’t have values from sources of the priority list, priority of sources are taken from the source type configuration of the business model.
    • If strategy applied to one value only, this value and its crosswalk become winners, irrespective of whether this crosswalk has a source from the priority list or not.

    Reference: https://docs.reltio.com/matchmerge/survivorshiprules.html?hl=source%2Csystem%2Cov%2Cvalue

    Also, can you confirm if the source systems contributing the winner have the same values? 

    Thanks,
