Interflow Match Report
Interflow Match locates matches between similar data records across two input record streams. The first record stream is a source for suspect records and the second stream is a source for candidate records.
Using match group criteria (for example a match key), Interflow Match identifies a group of records that are potentially duplicates of a particular suspect record.
Reporting
The Interflow Match job allows you to monitor the results of the job. The counters available are:- DUPLICATE_COLLECTIONS
- The number of duplicate collections, which consist of a suspect and its duplicate records grouped together by a CollectionNumber.
- EXPRESS_MATCHES
- The number of Express Matches made in a collection.
An Express Match is made when a suspect and candidate have an exact match on the contents of a designated field, usually an ExpressMatchKey provided by the Match Key Generator. If an Express Match is made, no further processing is done to determine if the suspect and candidate are duplicates.
- AVERAGE_SCORE
- The average match score of all duplicates.
The possible values are 0-100, with 0 indicating a poor match and 100 indicating an exact match.
- INPUT_SUSPECTS
- The number of records in the input stream that the matcher tried to match to other records.
- SUSPECTS_WITH_DUPLICATES
- The number of input suspects that matched at least one candidate record.
- UNIQUE_SUSPECTS
- The number of input suspects that did not match any candidate records.
- SUSPECTS_WITH_CANDIDATES
- The number of input suspects that had at least one candidate record in its match group and therefore had at least one match attempt.
- SUSPECTS_WITHOUT_CANDIDATES
- The number of input suspects that had no candidate records in its match group and therefore had no match attempts.
- TOTAL_DUPLICATE_CANDIDATES
- The total number of duplicate candidates found.
- TOTAL_DUPLICATE_SCORE
- The total match score of all the duplicates.
