Configuration process map
The following table gives you a high-level outline of the above configuration tasks:
1) Make data model updates | Before using add-on features, you must update your data model. |
2) Register tables | You make data available to the add-on by registering tables. You can also specify whether to pause add-on functionality on registered tables. |
3) Set matching options | You configure matching behavior for a registered table by adjusting options that set how and when matching executes. Matching operations locate potentially duplicate information. |
4) Configure a merge policy | You create a merge policy to tell the add-on how it should handle matching results. For example, when duplicate information is found, these settings are used to specify which values should be merged, or survived, into the golden record. |
5) Activating matching | When you activate matching configurations the add-on automatically validates configuration settings and informs you of any errors or warnings. |
