To Create the Match String (XML Editor)

1. In the Projects window, expand the Configuration node in the project you want to modify, and then double-click the Match Field file.

   The file opens in the NetBeans XML editor.

2. In the MatchingConfig element, scroll to the match-columns element in the match-system-object element.

3. To add a field to the match string, do the following:

   1. In the match-columns element, create a new match-column element.

   2. In the new match-column element, create and define a column-name element.

      Enter the fully qualified field name of the field on which to match (for example, Enterprise.SystemSBR.Person.Address.City).

   3. Following the column-name element, create and define a match-type element.

      Enter an ID that identifies the field to the match engine. For the Sun Match Engine, this value must correspond to a defined match type.

      For example:

      <match-system-object> <object-name>Address</object-name> <match-columns> <match-column> <column-name>Enterprise.SystemSBR.Person.Address.StreetName </column-name> <match-type>StreetName</match-type> </match-column> </match-columns> </match-system-object>

4. Repeat the previous step for each field to add to the match string.

5. Save and close the file.
