To configure a new data quality vendor

1. Log into the Siebel Web client as a system administrator.
2. Navigate to Administration - Data Quality.
3. Click Data Quality Settings and enable the following options:

4. Add the following options to enable a pop-up dialog box to display possible duplicate records for each new record of a given type when the real-time duplicate prevention service is running.

   If these options are not specified, and the real-time duplicate prevention service is running, the check will still be performed, but you must navigate to the Duplicate Accounts, Duplicate Contacts or Duplicate Prospects tab when adding a new record:

   • Force User DeDupe - Account = Yes
   • Force User DeDupe - Contact = Yes
   • Force User DeDupe - List Mgmt = Yes
5. Click the Third Party Administration link, and in the Vendor list add a new entry with EDQ as the Name value, and dnd at the DLL Name value.
