See Setting Up Case Relationship Types and Labels.

When searching for case matches, if there is no provider group on the current case, the system will use the match criteria defined for the case business unit. If the current case has a provider group, then the system will use the match criteria defined for that provider group.

If the current case has a provider group but there is no match criteria defined for that provider group, then the system will use the match criteria defined for the business unit for that case.

Note: There is no limit to how many match definitions you can define for a business unit or provider group. However, the more match definitions you define, the more processing it will take to return your match results. For that reason, we recommend you minimize the number of match definitions you use.
