Hi @Marp ,

 

nice to see a good fuzzy matching workflow.

 

Not sure why the Fuzzy Match settings didn't pick this up.

 

I did it manually using the data cleansing and a formula tool to strip punctuation and remove INC and LTD. Changing the case to upper case did the trick for me to reach a score of 100.

 

See attached.

 

 

Please mark this as the solution if it answers your question, it will help others to find solutions quicker.
