Master Data Management
Bring matching candidates into a governed review
Use matching configurations and policies by entity type, with candidates presented to stewards for an accountable decision.
The capability
Understand which records belong together
The same supplier, customer or product can appear in several source systems. Similar records need review before they are consolidated.
Autonera supports matching configurations and policies per entity type. Candidates enter a merge review worklist where stewards decide, and dispositions are audited.
Problems it solves
Where this work usually breaks down
Fragmented identities
The same entity has different source records.
