COmanage Match performs identity de-duplication in order to help minimize the creation of duplicate accounts for the same individual. It provides a heuristic-based system for matching identity records across multiple authoritative systems of record. Match can be used with Registry or as a standalone product complementary to your other tools. This group of pages is a complement to information in the Match Technical Manual. Both resources lead to the same detailed information. The difference? The Technical Manual is designed to efficiently direct you to the details you seek, while these pages are designed to provide additional context and guidance.

Match Structure and Configuration

This page describes the underlying structure and configuration of Match; reviews the properties and configuration of Matchgrids, the core element of Match; and serves as an orientation to the use of the COmanage Match web application.

Match Sources: Systems of Record

Systems of Record (SORs) represent upstream authoritative systems of records to match. In a typical campus deployment, examples of Systems of Record would include the student system, the HR system, the alumni database, and the guest management system.

Configuring Match Attributes

Each System of Record (SoR - aka, source system) that you connect to COmanage Match contains multiple records. Each of these records describe a data subject. One of the first things you need to do in planning your strategy for matching records across various Sources of Record is to establish what Attributes (fields) about the data subject that you are going to use to determine matches. 

Developing Match Rules

Match Rules determine how Match Attributes are used when a match request has been received. Through the evaluation of these rules, canonical (high confidence), and potential matches are made, and a Match Reference ID is assigned to the incoming records.
