Creating a Matching Project

Use the following procedure to create a matching project in webMethods OneData and configure the connection to the data quality server that you are using.

Note:
Before you begin this procedure, if your data quality server is webMethods Integration Server, ensure that you have already configured a connection to the data quality server in Connection Manager.

1. On the Menu toolbar, click Define > Data Quality > Consolidation > Project Mapping.

2. Click Add New Project.

3. Define the following fields.

Field	Value
Server	Select the server as webMethods OneData, webMethods IS, or Trillium Software
Server Type	Select the matcher.
Project Name	Define the name of the cleansing project using the following sample recommendations: webMethods OneData, set the name to webMethods OneData_MatchingProject. If webMethods Integration Server, set the name to IS_MatchingProject. If Trillium, set the name to CDI_MatchingProject.

4. Define the remaining fields for the data quality server you are using, as follows:

For webMethods OneData Matching, select the Inherit Rules from Default Project check box to automatically populate the default webMethods OneData attributes.

For webMethods IS, define the remaining fields, as follows and click Save.

Field	Value
Connection	Select the Integration Server connection as, IS_Connection. For help with creating Integration Server connections, see webMethods OneData User’s Guide.
Service Folder	The folder in which the service resides.
Service Name	Define the name of the service.

For Trillium, define the remaining fields, as follows and click Save.

Field	Value
Service Code	Set the system ID of the Trillium service. For example, B.
Server Name	Set the server name. For example, B2B.
Server Host Name	Set as the Trillium Director. For example, trillium.datafoundations.com.
Server Port	Set to the Trillium Director port. For example, 8888.
Match Level	Select the matching level to apply: Level 1. Matches based on the attributes set at Level 1. Level 2. Matches first for Level 1 attributes. If there is a match for Level 1 attributes, then a match is performed on Level 2 attributes. If Level 1 matching fails, no matching is performed on Level 2. Attributes are set at Level 1 and Level 2 rules in Trillium.
Inherit Attributes from Default Project	Select to inherit attributes from the default project.

5. Click Save.

Note:
When you create a matcher project, webMethods OneData adds a set of default outbound attributes.

6. Define the mapping attributes for the matching project.

For information about mapping attributes specific to each data quality server, see:
