EPM Spotlight Features

Be sure to review the details of significant feature(s) being introduced.

Enterprise Data Management now includes a built-in data matching engine that supports fuzzy matching based upon a rule based approach that is data source aware. The new engine extends Enterprise Data Management's ability to match, link and merge records from external data sources. New features include:

  • Configuration of both registered and unregistered data sources 
  • Match rule definition by node type and data source to enable entity resolution 
  • Survivorship rules by node type and data source to rationalize properties from source to target master
  • Match merge workbench to resolve suspects and resolve the best matches for duplicate resolution 
  • Relationship rationalization within hierarchy viewpoints to insert or move nodes under parents in the target and update relationship properties across scenarios when shared nodes either enabled or disabled
  • Visualize node lineage based upon node links generated when nodes are blended from data sources into a master record or when they are propagated from a master to a downstream application via subscriptions

Business Benefit: Spotlight features are important enhancements that can significantly impact the EPM Cloud user experience.
