Pentaho:MatchUp:Matchcode

← Data Quality Components for Pentaho

Matchcodes are sets of rules that tell MatchUp component which data fields to consider when determining if two records are duplicates. MatchUp component uses the matchcode to construct a "match key," a simplified string of characters that represents the information within the record, enough to determine if the given records is unique or a duplicate.

If you would like to copy and edit one of these default matching strategies, or create a new matchcode from scratch, click the Matchcode Editor button.
