Matching

Data matching consolidates data records into identifiable groups and links/merges related records within or across data sets. This process locates matches in any combination of over 35 different components – from common ones like address, city, state, ZIP®, name, and phone – to other not-so-common elements like email address, company, gender and social security number. You can select from exact matching, Soundex, or Phonetics matching which recognizes phonemes like "ph" and "sh". Data matching also recognizes nicknames (Liz, Beth, Betty, Betsy, Elizabeth) and alternate spellings (Gene, Jean, Jeanne).
