QS Match Stage Options & Significance
Posted: Wed Sep 10, 2008 1:03 pm
I have questions on the Match option Concepts.
I have two Files:
File A (which list of Prospect records bought from Outside Vendors). This file might have same individual multiple times.
File B -> List of Present Customers in the company with a Unique ID per Customer.
In the process of Matching, we match on NAME & ADDRESS data and if there is a Match Found then assign the same UniqueID which is used in the company internally.
My question is:
a) What is the Match strategy (Geomatch multiple or Geomatch Duplicate) that needs to be used if i want to capture all the records from File A (the Vendor list) that Match to the File B and would i be able to group all same induuviduals under a same Group?
Also If there are some vendor Records that Do not match with Existing customers on File B but are duplicate residuals, would all be assigned the Same Group ID and can all of those be captured in the Residual File without routing the duplicates to DUPA file?
b) WHat is the Match Strategy that needs to be USED if the File B also consists of DUplicates.
I am more concerned about question (a) as i believe, by Unduplicating File B, i will be back to the state of Question (a).
Any input is greatly appreciated as this is very Urgent.
Thanks..
