Matching Segment

Matching Segment

The segment field in the master bean record contains a matching segment. The matching segment is a string of characters that
Customer 360 for Salesforce
 uses to filter records before it performs fuzzy matching.
To improve fuzzy match performance,
Customer 360 for Salesforce
 performs an exact match on the matching segments to eliminate records that are unlikely to match.
Customer 360 for Salesforce
 then performs fuzzy matching on the remaining records.
By default,
Customer 360 for Salesforce
 creates the segment using the two characters of the ISO country code followed by the characters in the company norm field. You can configure
Customer 360 for Salesforce
 to use any two fields to create a matching segment.
The following graphic shows the matching segment, the company norm, and the country ISO code on the
Master Bean Detail
 page:
A Master Bean with a fuzzy segment field value of CAINFORMATICA. The company norm field value is Informatica and the country ISO code field value is CA.
