Production reports provide information about the transactions that are processed through the master index database. These reports provide lists of potential duplicate profiles, merge transactions, unmerge transactions, assumed matches, updates, and deactivated profiles for a specified time period. These reports provide valuable information about how data is being processed with the current configuration. In addition to running the production reports daily, you should run them against any data that has been loaded from existing systems into the master index database in batch format. Production reports are run based on a date range you specify.
Assumed Match Report - This report displays information about any profiles that were automatically updated by incoming data during the specified time period. The information in this report, in combination with data from the potential duplicate report, helps you determine whether the matching threshold for assumed matches is accurate. You should review this report daily to ensure that no assumed matches were made in error.
Deactivated Record Report - This report displays a list of all profiles that were deactivated during the specified time period. Review this report daily to ensure that no profiles were deactivated in error. Master Index applications provide the ability to reactivate any deactivated profile.
Potential Duplicate Report - This report displays information about object profiles that were marked as potential duplicates of one another during the specified time period. The information provided in this report can help you determine whether the matching threshold and the duplicate threshold are configured accurately. Review this report daily to ensure potential duplicates are managed in a timely manner, and use this report as a work list when processing potential duplicates.
Merge Transaction Report - This report displays a list of all object profiles that were merged during the specified time period. Review this report daily to ensure that no profiles were merged in error. Master Index applications provide the ability to unmerge any merged profiles.
