Profile Match List
The Profile Auto Merge procedure provides a dynamic mechanism, for integrated multiple property environments, to automatically merge duplicate profiles. This will in turn, allow for more meaningful and cleaner data within the environment.
Note: The Profile Auto Merge procedure can be run for PMS, S&C, ORS/OCIS, or SFA.
After the configuration for the Profile Auto Merge has been setup, the Profile Auto Merge procedure can be scheduled to run in the background on a daily basis or can manually be processed. In ORS, selecting the Miscellaneous>Profile Match List menu option when granted the Utilities>Profile Automerge Utility user permission will display the Profile Match List screen.
