Duplicate Supplier Detection

Use Duplicate Supplier Detection to identify potential duplicate supplier records. Duplicate Supplier Detection compares supplier data and related address information against existing supplier records and returns potential matches.

To check whether a supplier already exists, submit the supplier data and specify:

  • A minimum similarity threshold
  • The number of results to return (Top K)

Duplicate Supplier Detection compares the submitted record with existing supplier records and returns:

  • Potential matches
  • Similarity scores
  • Matching attributes

You can use the results to determine whether a supplier record already exists before you create or maintain supplier data.

Potential duplicate supplier records are evaluated using these key attributes:

  • Supplier name
  • Phone number
  • Organization number
  • Address
  • Postal code
  • VAT code
  • City
  • Country code
