In Chapter 3, "Object Profile Searches on the MIDM," you learnt how to search for object profiles. This chapter shows you how to understand and look at the profile views.
This chapter includes the following sections:
Once you retrieve a search results list, you can view an object's detailed information, view and print summary information, compare object profiles, view merge transaction history for a profile, delete a source record, and view a history of all transactions for a profile.
You can view object information in any of the following formats:
When you select a profile to view from the search results list, detailed information about the selected object appears on the Record Details page in view mode. This page displays the SBR of the profile you selected on the left side of the page and summary information on the right side of the page. You can further expand the view to include all source records contained in the profile. Parent object information appears first followed by the data for each child object. From the Record Details page, you can perform several actions, such as viewing a transaction history for the object, viewing potential duplicate profiles, viewing merged transactions for the profile, deactivating the profile, updating object information, deleting the profile, and so on.
You can view source record details from both the Record Details page and the Source Record page. On the Record Details page, you can view all source records for an object profile. On the Source Record page, you can search for and view a specific source record. From the Source Record page, you can perform several actions against a source record, including adding a new source record, editing an existing source record, deleting a source record, deactivating or reactivating a source record, and merging two, three, or four source records. From the Record Details page, you can also edit the source records belonging to a profile.
You can compare multiple object profiles by performing an EUID comparison lookup for the profiles to compare from the Dashboard or by selecting multiple profiles in a search results list. The profiles are displayed in a side-by-side view or tabular format on the Record Details page. Once the profiles are displayed on the Record Details page, you can compare the source records of each object profile.
The Record Details comparison view allows you to view the selected profiles in a side-by-side comparison with the differences between the profiles highlighted. This view also allows you to compare a profile's SBR with its own source records, and to compare source records in one profile or between multiple profiles. This gives you a complete comparison between object profiles and between source records.
On the Source Record page, you can compare up to four source records from multiple profiles as long as they are all from the same source system.
You can view a history of all transactions performed against object profiles either by performing a search for specific records, as described in Searching for Object Profiles on the MIDM, or by performing a Transaction History search on the Transactions page, as described in Viewing Transaction Histories on the MIDM. You can trace the events that modified an object profile from the time the profile was added to the master person index application to the most previous transaction, including merged and deactivated profiles.
The Transaction History page allows you to view a side-by-side comparison of one object profile before and after a transaction occurred against that profile. You can also compare an SBR against an SBR, an SBR against a source record, and a source record against a source record. From associated Transaction History pages, you can unmerge the most recent merged profiles.
You can display a history of the merges that have affected a specific object profile. The merge history for an EUID or Local ID is available to view in a transactions page for the specified SBR. The top level displays the EUID of the current active profile. The EUIDs at the second level indicate the profiles that were merged into the top-level EUID to form the top-level profile of the SBR. If there are Local IDs listed, they indicate the profiles that were merged to form the profile above them. There might be several levels of merges displayed in an object's merge history.
The right side of the page displays information about the merge transactions that involved the EUID that is selected in the EUID tree on the left. You can select a specific transaction to view a transaction history comparison for that merge transaction.
The audit log allows you to track and view all instances in which information about the objects in the master person index application was accessed through the MIDM. If audit logging is enabled, an audit log entry is created each time the MIDM accesses database tables that contain object information. The audit log keeps a record of each time the tables are accessed, along with the database function used to access the tables, the login ID of the user accessing the tables, the date and time the tables were accessed, and the EUIDs of the object profiles that were accessed. The audit log is enabled and disabled in the midm.xml file in the master person index project.
The MIDM displays object profiles in a series of pages from which you can search for, select, and view object profiles. You can view information associated with any of the SBR or source record components in an object profile. The SBR contains the information that is determined to be the most current and accurate information about that object from all external systems.
The source records associated with a profile contain information that is stored in the external systems that share information with the master person index application. The information in a source record might not match the information in the SBR. You can view information about an object in several different ways, including the following:
The Record Details page displays object profiles in a series of pages from which you can select and view profiles. You can view information associated with any of the SBR or source record components in an object profile. The SBR contains the information that is determined to be the most current and accurate information about that object from all local systems.
Using one of the search methods described inSearching for Object Profiles on the MIDM, display the object profile you want to view on the Record Details page.
To view different types of information in the SBR for the displayed object, simply scroll through the visible data fields.

To return to the search results list, click Back.
To look up another profile by EUID, enter the EUID in the field in the upper left -hand side and click Search.
To perform an advanced search for another profile, click Advanced Search.
The Source Record page displays source records in a series of search and view pages. You can view information associated with any of the SBR or source record components in an object profile. The source records associated with a profile contain the information that is stored in the external systems that share information with the master person index application. The information in an object's source records might not match the information stored in the object's SBR.
In the tabbed headings, click Source Record.
Click the View/Edit sub-tab, if it is not already selected.
In the System drop-down list, select the system from which the source record originated.
In the Local ID field, enter the local ID number for the source record you want to view.

From the Source Record View/Edit page, perform any of the following functions.
To modify field values in the source record, click Edit and follow the appropriate procedure under Modifying Profile Information on the MIDM.
To view the object profile that contains the displayed source record, click View EUID (for more information, see Viewing Object Profiles on the MIDM).
To deactivate the source record, click Deactivate.
To delete a source record, click Delete.
The MIDM allows you to compare two or more object profiles side-by-side to check for similarities and differences. You can also compare different components of the same object profile and you can compare two or more source records from the same or different profiles.
To compare two or more object profiles, you can either perform an EUID comparison lookup from the Dashboard, or you can select multiple records from a Record Details search. From the resulting comparison page, you can compare the resulting profiles and you can view the source records for the displayed profiles.
To Compare Two or More Object Profiles
Perform a search for the object profiles you want to compare, using one of the following methods:
If you know the EUIDs of the profiles you want to compare, lookup the EUIDs from the Dashboard as described in Performing an EUID Comparison Lookup.
If you do not know the EUIDs of the profiles to compare, perform a search on the Record Details page as described in Searching for Object Profiles on the MIDM, select the check boxes next to the EUIDs to compare, and then click Compare.
The records appear on the Record Details page in a side-by-side comparison view.

Tip:
Clicking View EUID takes you out of the Source Records page and into the Record Details page. To return to the Source Record comparison page, click Back on the Record Details page.To merge any of the displayed source records, see Merging Source Records on the MIDM.
Using the Transactions function, you can view historical information for a specific object and compare the object's profile before and after a specific transaction occurred to determine what information was modified as a result of the transaction. You can access the transaction history for a profile from the Record Details page, or you can access transaction histories for one or more profiles from the Transactions page.
When you display a transaction history from the Record Details page, all of the transactions for the displayed object profile appear in chronological order, with the earliest transaction on the left and the most recent transaction on the right. When you display a transaction history record from the Transactions page, the image of the profile as it was prior to the transaction appears on the left side of the comparison page. The image on the right reflects the object's information after the transaction occurred.
Perform a search for the object profile whose history you want to view using one of the search procedures described in Searching for Object Profiles on the MIDM.
If necessary, select the profile to view from the search results list.
The profile appears on the Record Details page.
