The corporate linkage service from Duns & Bradstreet (D&B) returns the parent and the related entities of a requested organization. If you want to import the linkage information, you must develop a custom application that can use the linkage service.

You configure a transformation of an XML document to business entity and expose it as a service. When you expose an XML document to business entity transformation as a service, the process creates the DaaS Import and DaaS Update business entity services. Use the DaaS Import and DaaS Update services to import business entity data and update changes to business entity data.

For more information about how to use the linkage service, see the Supporting Corporate Linkage Service chapter in the

Multidomain MDM Business Entity Services Guide
