Add a Record Version Example

Your organization has the CUSTOMER base object for which you track data change events. The CUSTOMER base object contains a record for John Smith who lives in New York effective 21 March 2014. You want to maintain contiguity of effective periods. You load a record version that is effective from 1 December 2014.

Before you load a new record version, the record for John Smith shows that he lives in New York from 21 March 2014.

Rowid XREF	Rowid Object	Customer ID	First Name	Last Name	City	Period Start date	Period End Date
1	2	25	John	Smith	New York	March 21, 2014	null

When you load the record version that is effective from 1 December 2014, the effective period of the adjacent record version decreases. The MDM Hub adjusts the effective end date of the existing record to avoid the overlap of record versions and to maintain contiguity.

After you load the record version that is effective from 1 December 2014, the cross-reference table shows that the existing record version for John Smith ends on 30 November 2014.

Rowid XREF	Rowid Object	Customer ID	First Name	Last Name	City	Period Start date	Period End Date
1	2	25	John	Smith	New York	March 21, 2014	November 30, 2014
2	2	25	John	Smith	Los Angeles	December 1, 2014	null
