Analyzing Match Results

The Match Analysis tool in Enterprise Designer displays the results of one or more matching stages of the same type. The tool provides summary matching results for a dataflow and also allows you to view matching results on a record-by-record basis. You can use this information to troubleshoot or fine-tune your match rules to produce the results you want.

The Match Analysis tool provides the following features:

Match Summary Results: Displays summary record counts for a single match result or comparisons between two match results.
Lift/Drop charts: Uses bar charts to display an increase or decrease in matches..
Match rules: Displays the match rules used for a single match result or the changes made to the match rules when comparing two match results.
Match Detail results: Displays record processing details for a single match result or the comparison between two match results.
