Matching Set Criteria and Search

[former_member343107]

Hi All,

Can we specify "non-equal" criteria for matching set? For example, "all the nuts and bolts whose scale difference is less than 10 nanometer belong to one matching set".

And can we search for all the records in a matching set in data manager?

Thanks + Best Regards

You can use the MDM Java API to search based on Matching Sets.

<b>CatalogData.GetMatchingSetSearch</b>

public Search GetMatchingSetSearch(java.lang.String searchTable,

int recordID,

int matchingTaxonomyNodeID,

java.lang.String taxonomyField)

throws StringExceptionReturns a Search object containing parameters corresponding to matching records for the specified search record and matching taxonomy node.

Parameters:

searchTable - the search table name.

recordID - the record ID in the main table for which to return matching attributes.

matchingTaxonomyNodeID - the target node ID from the resutset of GetMatchingTaxonomyRecords method.

taxonomyField - the taxonomy field in the main table.

Returns:

the Search object.

Throws:

StringException - such as a loss of connection to the server.

Please post in this thread if you come across a way to search in Data Manager.

You can set only EQUALITY matches in matching set as of MDM SP4 Patch 3.

The functionality for NON EQUALITY matches is not there.

Hope this helps.
