Suspect match

Custom objects

24R2.1

Data Stewards can now select the field values that will survive on the winning record. Previously, when Data Stewards processed a suspect match, they could select the winning record only.

Example - Merging two Employee records

Field values can be selected on each record considered for the suspect match.

This enhancement is enabled by default in your Network instance.

Merge prevention rules

24R2.1

Suspect match tasks now consider the field values defined in merge prevention rules. Previously, reference values could be defined, but the specific values were ignored; merges were prevented if the field on both records had any value and the values were different (even if those different values are allowed in the merge prevention rule).

A message displays below each rule to explain the merge prevention behavior.

For more details about the rules, see Merge prevention and data partitioning in the Veeva Network Online Help.
