Dataflux Match Codes

[Bastian]

How to find more matches through simpler match codes. Will match codes with a lower sensitivity value be matched to a higher number of match codes with higher sensitivity. How is Data Joining configured in this context?

As I understand it the match code generated depends on the sensitivity. For this reason you can't use match codes generated with different sensitivities for joining/lookup.

I think of match codes as grouping/clustering values. The lower the sensitivity the more source values will get grouped into the same match code. For this reason if you generate in both tables match codes with a lower sensitivity then you'll get more matches when joining.
