Understanding Sun Master Index Processing

deactivateSystemObject

This method deactivates a system record in an enterprise record. The MIDM calls this method when you deactivate a system record. If the enterprise record containing this system record has no active system records remaining, the enterprise record is deactivated and all potential duplicate listings are deleted. (Note that if the system record is reactivated, then the enterprise record is recreated.) If the enterprise record has active system records after the transaction and the update mode is set to “pessimistic”, the application checks whether any key fields were updated in the SBR. If key fields were updated, potential duplicates are recalculated for the enterprise record. Figure 10 illustrates the processing steps.
