Understanding Using External Search Match

As is the case for Internal Search/Match, there are two options to perform searches in an external system:

  • Online search: Manually navigate to the Search/Match Integrated component and enter search options.

    Note: When your institution configures External Search/Match functionality and integrates with an external system, Oracle recommends that you revoke your users' security access to the Search/Match component and replace it with the Search/Match Integrated component so that users will use the same tool for searching existing IDs.

  • Automatic search: From a Campus Solutions component where an ID can be created, the External Search/Match triggers behind the scenes after user clicks Save.
