Child Base Object Cascade Unmerge Behavior

Child Base Object Cascade Unmerge Behavior

The affect that the cascade unmerge process has on a child base object depends on whether the parent underwent the tree unmerge process or the linear unmerge process.
The following list shows the the configuration of the parent base object record and the child base object record before and after the cascade unmerge processes:
Merged parent base object record
The following graphic shows a parent base object record '1', which is the best version of the truth that consists of data from records '2' through '7':
The record hierarchy is a tree-like structure. The base object record is at the top, and related records split into two branches.
Merged child base object record
The following graphic shows the child base object record, '1', that has the same data structure as the parent base object record. The child base object record generally has a different structure from the parent base object record.
The record hierarchy is a tree-like structure. The base object record is at the top, and related records split into two branches. In this example, the child base object record has the same structure as the parent base object record.
Parent base object after a linear unmerge
The following graphic shows record '2' as a separate base object after it undergoes the linear unmerge process:
Unmerged records break away from original hierarchical structure. For a linear unmerge, the unmerged record breaks away into a base object record with no branches. The branches of the unmerged base object merge into the base object record at the top of the tree-like structure.
Child base object after a linear unmerge
When the parent base object record undergoes the linear unmerge process, the child base object record undergoes the same process. The following graphic shows that the affect of the parent base object record linear unmerge process has on the child base object record:
Unmerged records break away from original hierarchical structure. For a linear unmerge, the unmerged record breaks away into a base object record with no branches. The branches of the unmerged base object merge into the base object at the top of the tree-like structure. In this example, the structure of the child base object after the linear unmerge is the same as the parent base object.
Parent base object after a tree unmerge
The following graphic shows that record '2' is a separate base object that maintains its tree structure after it undergoes the tree unmerge process.
Unmerged records break away from original hierarchical structure. For a tree unmerge, the unmerged record breaks away from the original base object and retains the tree-like structure. The branches of the unmerged base object remain as branches of the unmerged base object.
Child base object after a tree unmerge
When the parent base object record undergoes the tree unmerge process, the unmerged tree in the child base object undergoes the linear unmerge process. The following graphic shows the affect that the parent base object record tree unmerge process has on the child base object record:
Unmerged records break away from original hierarchical structure. For a tree unmerge, the unmerged record and all branches of the unmerged record in the child base object break away into individual child base object records.
