1) we want to retreive matching scrore for the defined matching strategy. With the following reference code,I am able to retrive the matching score for the given input parameters.This looks like Selected Vs All.Can anybody tell me how to change it to Results Vs All ? Do you have any sample code?

Hi JJ JJ,

As for the first point to achieve the strategy for Results vs All.In the SetRecordID method of ExecuteMatchingStrategyRecordCommand class set the array of RecordID for all the records on which the matching strategy has to be executed.

Thanks

Hi JJ

1) As the link the your code reference is broken i cannot see the exact sample code used in the matching execution but in order to change a matching criteria you just have to change the setSource and setTarget methods in the class ExecuteMatchingStrategyCommand or ExecuteMatchingStrategyForNewRecordValuesCommand (Whichever is used).

you can use the Search parameter in the setSource method to set a Results Vs All Matching execution.

2) MDM Java API doesn't currently supports merging of records.
