Matching Weight Determination

When comparing two records to determine the likelihood of a match, the match engine compares the match fields you specify between the records to determine a matching weight for each match field based on the reliability of the field and the comparison function used. The sum of the weights of the match fields is the total matching weight between the two records. The logic used by the standardization and match engines is highly customizable to provide the most reliable matching for the type of data you store.
