Unmerge source records

You can unmerge any source record that must not be associated with a particular master record. When you unmerge multiple source records from a master record, you can unmerge them into separate master records or merge them into a single master record. When you unmerge records, the relationships of the unmerged records revert to the corresponding master record based on business ID.

    2Click the Source Records tab.
