Configuring Vendor Parameters

For each of the third-party software vendors that SDQ uses for data cleansing or data matching, you can configure the vendor parameters that the Siebel application passes to the vendor software. You configure the vendor parameters in the Administration - Data Quality, Third Party Administration view, which also contains the DLL or shared library name for each vendor.

There are preconfigured vendor parameters for the Matching Server with the embedded SSA software, and for the Universal Connector with ODQ Matching Server as an example.

For more information, see Preconfigured Parameter and Field Mapping Values for SDQ Matching Server and Examples of Parameter and Field Mapping Values for Universal Connector.

To configure vendor parameters

1. Navigate to the Administration - Data Quality screen, then the Third Party Administration view.
2. In the Vendor List, select the record for the required vendor.
3. Click the Vendor Parameter tab.
4. In the Vendor Parameter List, create new records as required, or configure the values of existing vendor parameters.
