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.
