Understanding the Master Index Match Engine

Probabilities or Agreement Weights

The first step in configuring the match configuration is to decide whether to use m-probabilities and u-probabilities or agreement and disagreement weight ranges. Both methods will give you similar results, but agreement and disagreement weight ranges allow you to specify the precise maximum and minimum weights that can be applied to each match field, giving you control over the value of the highest and lowest matching weights that can be assigned to each record.
