Customizing the Dedup Algorithms
If you are working with Primo VE and not Primo, see Understanding the Dedup and FRBR Processes (Primo VE).
This task requires installation-level permissions.
You can customize the deduplication settings, if you need to make any of the following changes:
-
Change the added/subtracted points
-
Add or modify a threshold
-
Add an additional field.
Some of the fields included in the XML files are not in use because the out of the box normalization rules do not create these fields. If you want to use these fields, you will need to modify the normalization rules.
To modify the deduplication settings, you must create the new XML files under the same directory and then use the following fields on the Primo Home > Advanced Configuration > General Configuration > Publishing subsystem page to point to the new XML files:
-
primo.dedup.CDLSeMatchingProfile defaults to CDLSeMatchingProfile
-
primo.dedup.CDLMatchingProfile defaults to CDLMatchingProfile
