Fuzzy Match Problem Statement

Rohan139

Hi Peeps,

 

Facing some issues while using fuzzy match tool .

Taking below table as an example:

 

Record id NAME
1P R BISWAS 
2PULAKH RAJ BISWAS 
3RANJAN CHOPRA 
4R CHOPRA 

 

 

So basically I am applying (Best of Jaro & Levenshtein) Algorithm for making a match and i have kept a match threshold of 85%.

And After that i am using make group tool to generate parent key for all the possible matches.

 

 for record id (3 & 4) match score = 92  so it shows me like this 

Record id 1 Record id 2Match Score 
12Null
3492

 

And I know the reason for (Null) because match score is 50 for record id (1 & 2) when i tried it seperately.

 

Now this is the Problem that I want same for 1 & 2 as well just like (3 &4) so that Final  output could be like this :

 

Parent key Child key 
11
12
33
34
