Match

The Match transform is responsible for performing matching based on the business rules you define. The transform then sends matching and unique records on to the next transform in the data flow.

For best results, the data in which you are attempting to find matches should be cleansed. Therefore, you may need to include other Data Quality transforms before the Match transform.

Match concepts

This section describes the Match transform, how it fits into a data flow, and the options you can set to conform to your business rules. The Match transform is only one tool, albeit the most important one, for you to use in your matching strategy. For more information about matching concepts and other transforms you can use to achieve the results you are looking for, see the Match section of the Designer Guide.
