Modifying merged records

Last published : Aug 10, 2026
Some use cases require a record's life-cycle to continue after a merge operation where it did not become the golden record. The add-on allows you to enable merged record modification for these types of cases.
To enable merged record modification:
  1. Navigate to Administration > TIBCO EBX® Match and Merge Add-on > Table activation and settings and open the configuration where you want to enable merged record modification.
  2. Expand the Advanced settings group on the Main tab.
  3. Set Modify merged records to Yes.
    The following behavior is applied when a record is in the merged state and the modified field:
    • Is not configured to use in matching operations: The add-on executes an automatic merge using the settings defined in the default matching policy's merge policy. This ensures the golden record contains the most up-to-date data.
    • Is configured to use in matching operations: The record is changed to the <unset> state and should be matched again against other records in the table.
  4. Save before exiting.
    Users are now able to save changes to merged records.
