Default Resolution Type Setting

Controls which duplicate resolution process type are assigned to new duplicate resolution requests. The underlying profile option is ZCH_DEDUP_REQUEST_TYPE_OPTION.

The options are:

  • Merge: New duplicate resolution requests are queued for merging the duplicates into one master record.

  • Link: New duplicate resolution requests are queued for linking the duplicates to each other without merging the records. The records to remain active.

  • Generic: The data steward selects the duplicate resolution process type before processing the resolution requests.

Consider these points:

  • To implement automatic duplicate resolution request processing, you must select either Merge or Link for the Default Duplicate Resolution setting.

  • A data steward can change the duplicate resolution request type while reviewing a duplicate resolution request.
