Business Name Phonetic Encoding

When you match on business name fields, the name field should be specified for phonetic conversion (by default, the wizard defines this for you). Follow the instructions under Defining Phonetic Encoding for the Master Index (Repository) in Configuring Sun Master Indexes (Repository) to define fields for phonetic encoding.

A sample of the phoneticize-fields element is shown below. This sample only converts the business name. You can define additional fields for phonetic encoding.

<phoneticize-fields>
   <phoneticize-field>
      <unphoneticized-source-field-name>Company.Name_Name
      </unphoneticized-source-field-name>
      <phoneticized-target-field-name>Company.Name_NamePhon
      </phoneticized-target-field-name>
      <encoding-type>NYSIIS</encoding-type>
   </phoneticize-field>
</phoneticize-fields>
