Abstract
Duplicate record processing is enabled employing on customizable rules. Detected duplicate records are merged, deleted, deactivated, or moved based on one or more sets of customizable rules. Different rule sets may be used for each record type, or a rule set reused for different records. Hierarchical relationships between master and child records are adjusted upon duplicate processing based on rules and/or record attributes.
