Understanding Sun Master Index Configuration Options (Repository)

About the EDM

The EDM is a web-based interface that allows you to manage and monitor the data in your master index database. Using the EDM, you can search for records; add, update, deactivate, and reactivate records; review and resolve potentially duplicate records; compare records; and merge and unmerge records. You can also view a transaction history for each record and an audit log of access to the database. This interface is highly configurable, allowing you to customize certain processing properties as well as the appearance of certain windows.

The EDM facilitates the use of screen readers and other assistive technology by providing information through HTML tags. It also provides tooltips when the cursor is placed over links and images on the EDM pages.
