Match Analysis and Explainability dashboard

Use the Match Analysis and Explainability dashboard to understand how the match process generated record pairs.

The Match Analysis and Explainability dashboard lists the declarative rules that identified record pairs, properties of the declarative rules, and the number of match pairs generated by each rule. It also displays a match score for each record pair.

Use the dashboard to explore the match results and gain insights into the match process. You can modify the match configuration to get trust match outcomes. For example, if a declarative rule didn't generate any match pairs, you can consider removing it or updating its properties.

The dashboard has the following sections:

•Rank-based Rules
•Declarative Rule Properties
•Record Pairs

Rank-based rules

Rank-based rules are declarative rules that are ranked in a match model. You can view a list of declarative rules with their ranks, the configuration, the associated match model, and the number of record pairs they identified.

The following image displays the rank-based declarative rules section of the Match Analysis and Explainability dashboard:

The following table describes the details that the Rank-based Rules section displays:

Name	Description
Model Name	Name of the match model that contains the declarative rule.
Version	Version of the match model.
Rank	Execution order of the declarative rule in the match model.
Match Strategy	Type of match that the declarative rule performs.
Merge Strategy	Action to perform during the merge process. The values are Manual and Automated.
Match Criterion	Type of data to use for matching. Applicable to declarative match rules with the fuzzy match strategy.
Rule Description	Short description to identify a declarative rule.
Record Pairs	Number of record pairs that the declarative rule identified.

The following table lists the user interface elements that you can use in the Rank-based Rules section:

User Interface Elements	Description
Find	Search the declarative match rules based on the column values.
Filter	Filter declarative match rules based on the column values.
Sort	Sorts the declarative match rules in ascending or descending order based on the selected column name.
Export Data	Export details of the declarative match rules to a CSV file. The CSV file includes properties of declarative match rules, such as model name, version, and match criterion.

Declarative rule properties

View additional details of a declarative rule that you select in the Rank-based Rules section. The additional details include match rule ID, match level, and merge threshold.

These additional details provide a summary about the selected declarative rule and list the properties of the match fields that the declarative rule uses.

The following image displays the Declarative Rule Properties section of the Match Analysis and Explainability dashboard:

Rule Summary

The following table lists the properties of the selected declarative rule:

Declarative Rule Property	Description
Match Model	Name of the match model that contains the declarative rule.
Match Rule ID	System-generated identifier of the declarative rule.
Merge Strategy	Action to perform during the merge process. The values are Manual and Automated.
Match Level	Level of fuzzy matching performed on the data.
Record Pairs	Number of record pairs that the declarative rule identified.
Rule Description	Short description that explains the declarative rule.
Model Version	Version of the match model.
Match Strategy	Type of match that the declarative rule uses, such as exact or fuzzy.
Match Criterion	Type of data to use for matching. Applicable to declarative rules with the fuzzy match strategy.
Merge Threshold	Range of match scores used to identify record pairs as a match. Applicable to declarative rules with the fuzzy match strategy.

Match Field Details

Match fields are business entity fields that you use in declarative rules to identify matching records.

The following table lists the details of the match fields for the selected declarative rule:

Declarative Rule Property	Description
Match Type	Type of match that the declarative rule uses, such as exact or fuzzy.
Field Type	Type of data that the match field contains. Applicable to declarative rules with the fuzzy match strategy.
Field Name	Name of the business entity field that the declarative rule uses for matching. Applicable to declarative rules with the fuzzy match strategy.
Field Property	Additional properties configured for the match field, such as segment matching or null matching.
Value	Value to identify segment data for matching.

Record pairs

View the record pairs that a declarative rule identified, their source system details, and the match score.
