Configuring Multiple Mode Support for Data Matching

When using Oracle Data Quality Matching Server for data matching, you can configure different match rules for data matching depending on:

• Mode of operation (real-time or batch mode)
• Source of data (Siebel CRM or other application, such as, eBiz)

As a prerequisite to configuring multiple mode support for data matching, multiple language support for data matching must be configured as described in Configuring Multiple Language Support for Data Matching.

Follow the steps in the following procedure in order to use different match rules on a custom parameter (Source System). Using this procedure, the match rules that apply to data from source system 1 (EBIZ) will be different to the match rules that apply to data from source system 2 (SIEBEL).

To configure multiple mode support for data matching

1. Define separate match rules for each source system.
2. Create systems corresponding to each source system, where each source system points to a separate SDF file. For example:
   • Siebeldq_ebiz
   • Siebeldq_siebel

     The SDF file contains the IDT Layout Definition, Key Definition Logic, Match Fields considered for scoring records, the population to be used, and the Match purpose.

     NOTE:  You must contact Informatica Technical Support in order to fine tune the SDF file.

3. Apply changes to the ssadq_cfg.xml file.

   For each system that you create in IIR, add the following parameters. There must be two entries, one for each source system (EBIZ and SIEBEL).

   <Record_Type>
   <Name>BCNAME_SOURCEFIELDVALUE</Name>
   <System>SYSTEM_NAME</System>
   <Search>SEARCH_CRITERIA</Search>
   <no_of_sessions>100</no_of_sessions>
   </Record_Type>

   The following example assumes that the source field is within the Account Business Component.

   <Parameter>
   <Record_Type>
   <Name>Account_EBIZ</Name>
   <System>SiebelDQ_EBIZ</System>
   <Search>search-org</Search>
   <no_of_sessions>100</no_of_sessions>
   </Record_Type>
   </Parameter>

   <Parameter>
   <Record_Type>
   <Name>Account_SIEBEL</Name>
   <System>SiebelDQ_SIEBEL</System>
   <Search>search-org</Search>
   <no_of_sessions>100</no_of_sessions>
   </Record_Type>
   </Parameter>

4. Navigate to the Administration - Data Quality screen, then the Third Party Administration view, and add the new vendor parameter for ISS as shown in the following table (this example assumes that Account is the Business Component Name, and Source is the Field):

   Parameter Name	Value
   Append Account Record Type Field 1	Source (this the business component field name where the source information is stored).
