Abstract
Responsive to selecting, by a source system, a representative listing of an entity located on a provider system, the representative listing having first identification data and a first provider-supplied external identifier, the source system searches the provider system for additional listings having identification data matching the first identification data. The source system receives, from the provider system, a potential matching listing having identification data matching the first identification data and having a second provider-supplied external identifier that differs from the first provider-supplied external identifier. The source system designates the potential matching listing as a duplicate listing. The source system transmits, to the provider system, a request to suppress the designated duplicate listing on the provider system, the request comprising the second provider-supplied external identifier.
