Understanding matching rules
Here are key points to note on creating matching rules:
Match points: We will create one or more match points. Each match point
refers to a catalog field that the incoming records in the import file and the
existing records in the database are matched on. The match point could refer
to fields such as Control number, Biblio number, or Title.
Match threshold: Each matching rule has a threshold that must be crossed
during the matching process for a record pair to be considered successfully
matched.
Score: Each match point in a matching rule is assigned a score. During the
matching process if a pair of record is matched on the particular match point,
the matched pair is assigned the corresponding score. The sum of scores
across all match points must be greater than the Match threshold.
