Match Jobs

Match Jobs

A match job generates search keys for a base object, searches through the data for match candidates, and applies the match rules to the match candidates. The match job then generates the matches and queues the matches for either automatic or manual consolidation.
When you create a new base object in an ORS, the MDM Hub creates its Match job. Each Match job compares new or updated records in a base object with all records in the base object.
After running a Match job, the matched rows are flagged for automatic and manual consolidation. The MDM Hub creates jobs that consolidate the automerge or autolink records. If a record is flagged for manual consolidation, data stewards must use the Merge Manager to perform the manual consolidation. For more information about manual consolidation, see the
Multidomain MDM Data Steward Guide
.
You configure Match jobs in the Match / Merge Setup node in the Schema Manager.
Do not run a Match job on a base object that is used to define relationships between records in intertable or intratable match paths. This changes the relationship data, which results in the loss of the associations between records.
If your environment has an application server that runs Windows and a database server that runs Linux, match jobs can become unresponsive.
