Confirmed Matches Component

From the Confirmed Matches component screen, users can view all objects that have been confirmed as matches for the currently selected object, and may choose to either merge the selected object with one of the listed matches, or reject an object(s) as a viable match.

Important: The option to merge is not applicable to Golden Record configurations.

Matches listed on this screen must be confirmed via the Potential Duplicates List or Deduplication List screens before they can appear.

For more information on the Potential Duplicates List component, see the Match and Link, Potential Duplicates List section of the Web User Interfaces documentation here.

For more information on the Deduplication List component, see the Match and Link, Configuring a Deduplication Clerical Review section of the Web User Interfaces documentation here.

If applicable to the configuration, a merge nodes button can be added to the screen. To merge two matching nodes, select the relevant object from the list and click the 'Merge' () icon. For more information, see the Match and Link, Merging Confirmed Matches section of the Web User Interfaces documentation here.

To reject a confirmed match, select the relevant object from the list and click the 'remove' () icon. Doing so will send the selected object back to the Potential Duplicates List / Deduplication List screen.

Prerequisites

It is expected that anyone configuring the Confirmed Matches component is familiar with the Web UI Designer, as basic concepts for working with the designer are not covered in this section. In addition, the user must have appropriate privileges to access the designer. Additional information can be found in the Designer Access section of the Web User Interfaces / Web UI Getting Started documentation here.

The 'Create Confirmed Match from Grid Action' requires configuration.
