Views

The views for business entities (called E360 views) are similar to the views for subject areas (called legacy views). In some cases, the E360 views have different behavior or offer some enhancements.
In comparing the views, we assume that you are already familiar with the behavior of the legacy views.
The following table describes the similarities between the views and then highlights how the E360 views are different:

Similarities Between the Views
Differences for the E360 Views
Data View
Business Entity
Both views display master data for the selected business entity.
In the Business Entity view, you can add related social information, such as the entity's Twitter feed. You can also add helpful components, such as a component that displays similar business entities. You can configure more than one Business Entity view, and add the custom views to the Views list.
XREF View
Cross-reference Records
Both views display the cross-reference records that contain data from the source systems. You can create the best version of the truth.
The Cross-reference Records view includes all levels of descendant records.
Matches View
Matching Records
Both views display records that satisfied a match rule.
In the Matching Records view, users can match and merge descendant records. Users can also run a smart search to find and add similar records. You cannot manually override a value in the Matching Records view.
History View
History
Both views display data events in chronological order.
In the E360 version of the History view, the events appear in a vertical chronology, and data change event details appear in a panel to the right.
Effective Periods View
Timeline
Both views display information about data events with effective periods along a timeline.
n/a
Hierarchy View
Hierarchy
Both views display relationships for a selected business entity.
The E360 version of the Hierarchy view does not permit the following actions:
  • Finding a duplicate entity. Use a Business Entity view with the Similar Records component, or use the Matching Records.
  • Initiating a merge. Use the Matching Records view for this task.
  • Sharing a bookmark URL. You can still share an image of a hierarchy.
Custom record views
n/a
No custom views.
You can create custom record views to replace any of the standard views. You can add the names of the custom views to the Views list in the IDD application.
