Compare and Locate Nodes Across Viewpoints Using Node Links

Viewpoint comparison now uses node links when comparing nodes, relationships, and property values across viewpoints.  Node links are also used when locating nodes in target viewpoints from other viewpoints.  This enables the compare and locate operations to treat linked nodes as similar despite the fact they may have entirely different names.  Node links are established when nodes are synchronized from source to target viewpoints using subscriptions, when request items are created from a comparison, or when source nodes are matched and merged to target nodes.

Business Benefit: Similar nodes across viewpoints that have inconsistent naming conventions and/or use name transformations can be properly compared to identify node, relationship, and property value differences for reconciliation purposes.
