We would like to automatically detect if a new person should be aggregated with an already existing person for a single or multiple source systems. To be on the safe side we want an approval of the system administrator before the persons are merged.
We provide the following solution:
  • Add a fixed field “aggregation“ to the person mapping/model
  • The administrator could use a single field map (single field aggregation or complex mapping (multiple field aggregation)
  • This field is used to match and identify a unique person over multiple source systems or in a single source system
  • Match the value of the field aggregation of new persons against existing and other new persons
  • Use a matching algorithm that deducts a score based on the changes it takes to transform the aggregation value of the new person to the value of the already existing person list.
  • If the score is higher than x we block the import of the new person for the reason that we suspect it isn’t a unique person.
  • Allow the administrator to define the x in the previous statement
  • An email is sent when a person is blocked
  • Allow the administrator to merge or not merge (create person) on a blocked person with the reason we think we found a not unique person
