Match rules set the AUTOMERGE_IND column in the match table to specify how matched records are consolidated: automatically or manually.
Records flagged for manual consolidation are reviewed by a data steward using the Merge Manager tool. For more information, see the
Multidomain MDM Data Steward Guide
.
Records flagged for automatic consolidation are automatically merged. Alternately, you can run the automatch-and-merge job for a base object, which calls the match and then automerge jobs repeatedly, until either all records in the base object have been checked for matches, or the maximum number of records for manual consolidation is reached.
