Use this window to disclose a relationship between two
existing identities. By disclosing the relationship, you create a
link between the identities, as well as between the entities containing
those identities. Disclosing a relationship indicates that the link
between these two identities has not already been detected by entity
and relationship resolution, and that you have a specific reason to
link the two identities manually.
- Entity ID
- Enter the Entity ID number of each identity that you want to relate,
one in each Entity ID field.
- Lookup
- Click to display the identity information corresponding to the
Entity ID that you entered. Do this for both Entity ID numbers. By
reviewing the information that displays, you can verify that the Entity
IDs correspond to the identities that you intend to relate. Or you
can correct the Entity ID for one or both identities before linking
them.
- Option buttons (next to each identity associated with each Entity
ID)
- Select one identity for both Entity IDs. These IDs are the two
identities that you want to relate.
Note: You might only see one identity
for each entity, which means that entity only currently has one identity
in the system.
- Disclosed Relationship Description
- Type a description of how the two selected identities are linked. This
description provides helpful information to other Visualizer users,
when they view this relationship. It helps those users to understand
how and why these two identities are being linked.
- Create
- Click Create to disclose the relationship
between the two selected identities. The system sends the information
about both identities through the pipeline for processing, and then
updates the data for both identities, as well as all entities associated
with these identities.
