Fuzzy Match

Hi!

 

I'm teaching myself how to use the Fuzzy Match tool but I am now stuck. I was wondering if any of you might be able to help, please?

 

I have attached a sample data which shows what i am trying to accomplish.

 

Thank you!!

Hi @gbruschi,

 

I've attached a workflow which fuzzy matches using your data. For the address field, I have to change to a 'Characters' fuzzy matching algorithm as opposed to 'Word'. This is better given the way you address fields differ. 

 

There are great Fuzzy Matching training videos on the community which I've linked below:

 

Introduction to Fuzzy Matching

Fuzzy Matching for Intermediate Users

 

Hope you have a great day!
