Person Data Match String Fields

The match string processed by the Sun Match Engine is defined by the match fields specified in the Match Field file. The match engine can process any combination of fields you specify for matching. By default, the match configuration file (matchConfigFile.cfg) includes rows specifically for matching on first name, last name, social security number, and dates (such as a date of birth). It also includes a row for matching a single character, such as might be the case in a gender field. You can use any of the existing rows for matching or you can add rows for the fields you want to match. Any field for which you specify a match type in the wizard is added to the match string.
