@praneshsapmm The Fuzzy matching tool is really used for matching names and not symbols or characters as it uses language algorithms to match the names of people. Are you attempting to match names? If you are, there is a lot of prep necessary and understanding of the Fuzzy Match algorithms that will be necessary to make the matches work.
