Candidate Builder Configuration
From the list, select the appropriate candidate builder configuration used during entity resolution processing when loading data from for this data source.

This setting is typically used only for hotel systems.
From the list, select Yes to specify that the pipeline can match data without the data source account. If the match is not successful, the delete date is set on prior data. Otherwise, select No.
Name Manager Match Level
From the list, select the value for the comparison level to use when scoring incoming name data from this data source.
Default
Select this value to use the most common name match comparison level.
Loose
Select this value when you want to produce more name matches from this data source. This value loosens the name comparison match level, so that the comparison is less strict than the Default value.

Allow Unresolve
The unresolve feature is the process of separating resolved identities into two separate entities, based on new information from incoming data. From the list, make the appropriate selection for this data source:
  • Select Yes to permit entity resolution to separate identities into separate entities, if warranted, when loading accounts for this data source.
  • Select No to prevent entity resolution from separating identities into separate entities when loading accounts for this data source.
