Merging Nodes
Subscribing systems supported by Oracle Data Relationship Management may have transactions that refer to a deleted node. When you delete or inactivate nodes, you can specify other nodes in Data Relationship Management to use in place of a deleted or inactive node to handle this situation. The merge list can be used to maintain and provide these node relationships to an external process to map transaction data appropriately using the Merge Log export type.
Note:
The merge options (Delete & Merge and Inactivate & Merge) are available only if the UseMerge system preference is enabled. The merge options are not available when deleting or inactivating shared nodes
