Set up workflow template step - Fuzzy duplicate check
Activity Flow

If Data quality studio is installed on the same environment as Data entry workflow, you can apply a fuzzy duplicate check in Data entry workflow.
For each data entry workflow template, you can define a fuzzy duplicate check step. Use a fuzzy duplicate check step to automatically check if the data, as entered in the previous workflow tasks, is a possible duplicate record.

You can use these dependency types for fuzzy duplicate check steps:

• Step: Adds a step next to a selected step in the workflow.
• Parallel step: Adds a parallel step to a selected step in the workflow. You can add a parallel step to any step, except for the first step.
• Group subsequent step: Adds a step that brings together parallel steps in one next step. You can only add a group step if at least one parallel step is defined for the workflow template. For a group step, you must select the steps that are brought together in the group step.

When you create a data entry workflow step, the applicable dependencies are automatically created. The dependencies are created based on a combination of the selected step(s) and the type of step you create.

You can manually add dependencies or change existing dependencies. For example, if you add an additional step between existing steps, check and add the desired dependencies.

You can also remove a dependency for a selected step.

You can copy or move a step of a data entry workflow template.

You can copy or move a step:

• In the current data entry workflow template.
• To another data entry workflow template.

On creation of a fuzzy duplicate check step, you define the basic fuzzy duplicate check step setup. To complete the setup of a fuzzy duplicate check step:

• Assign the step to the responsible user, team, or role. The step assignment is applied only if possible duplicates are found.
• Define the possible duplicates evaluation outcomes.
• You can set up step conditions.
• You can set up an integration with Master data management studio.
• If it is the last step of a workflow, you can set up the post actions.

Note: For fuzzy duplicate check steps, tab pages, field groups, and fields are not applicable.
