Support for Mutation while Modifying Records

When you modify records through UI, you can use the Mutation feature.

The process of changing the record ID or record ID extension of a record is called mutation. In this process, the record identity is changed. Mutation allows ID or extension to be corrected during the entire span of a record. The ID or extension pair assigned to an active record cannot be assigned to another record even when an ID or extension pair is mutated.

Mutation is also supported for the following options:

  • Record modification through web services

    For more information on the Record Add/Modify web service, refer to the TIBCO MDM Web Services Guide.

  • Record modification through rulebase (using EvaluateRulebase activity)

    For more information on the EvaluateRulebase activity, refer to the TIBCO MDM Workflow Reference.

  • MergeRecord activity

    For more information on the MergeRecord activity, refer to TIBCO MDM Workflow Reference and TIBCO MDM Customization Guide.
