Example Configuration Steps

After you have configured this base object, you must complete the following tasks:

Configure foreign keys from this base object to the ROWID_OBJECT of the Employee base object.

Load this base object with data that describes the relationships between records.

ROWID_OBJECT	EMPLOYEE	REPORTS_TO
1	7	93
2	19	71
3	24	82
4	29	82
5	31	82
6	31	71
7	48	16
8	53	12

Note that you can define many-to-many relationships between records. For example, the employee whose ROWID_OBJECT is 31 reports to two different managers (ROWID_OBJECT=82 and ROWID_OBJECT=71), while this manager (ROWID_OBJECT=82) has three reports (ROWID_OBJECT=24, 29, and 31).

Use the EmplRepRel base object when configuring match column rules for the related records.

For example, you could create a match rule that takes into account the employee’s manager to produce more accurate matches.

This example used a REPORTS_TO field to define the relationship, but you could use piece of information to associate the records—even something more generic and flexible like RELATIONSHIP_TYPE.
