Master Records and the Best Version of the Truth

Master Records and the Best Version of the Truth

Master records in the MDM Hub maintain the best version of the truth. The MDM Hub consolidates the most trustworthy data from several source systems into each master record to achieve the best version of the truth.
The MDM Hub stores source data in cross-reference records. In the
Cross-reference Records
view, a data steward can examine these cross-reference records and investigate which source data contributes to the master record. Data stewards can then make adjustments to how source data is consolidated to ensure that the master record represents the best version of the truth.
The MDM Hub calculates a trust score for the fields in the cross-reference records. The trust calculation is based on settings and rules that are establish by an administrator. For more information about configuring the rules that govern trust score calculations, see the
Multidomain MDM Configuration Guide
.
If your MDM administrator created a custom view for this purpose, the name of the view might be different.
