Reversing an Assumed Match on the MIDM

If you find that an assumed match was made in error, you can reverse the assumed match. This process returns the updated object profile to its status just prior to the assumed match update, creates a new object profile for the record that caused the assumed match, and recalculates the SBR for the existing profile.

ProcedureTo Reverse an Assumed Match

  1. View the assumed match profile, as described in Finding Assumed Matches on the MIDM.

  2. At the bottom of the page, click Undo Match.

    A confirmation dialog box appears, providing the EUID number of the new profile that will be created as a result of reversing the match.

  3. On the confirmation dialog box, click OK.

    The assumed match is reversed, the updated profile is returned to its state prior to the assumed match, and a new object profile is created for the source record that caused the assumed match. Any changes that were made after the assumed match but before reversing the assumed match are retained.

  4. On the information dialog box, click OK to view the newly created profile.
