  • Possible participant matches pulls up random persons

    Hello,

    on entering new participant information, application suggests possible matches which is a good feature but there are few records that are random and does not match with the participant data. Participant matches list is incredibly large. so reviewing a long list that seems random is problematic. Our users has to go through each record to make sure they are not repeating the data.

    for e.g.,participant data…
    first Name: Matt
    Last Name: Test
    Birth date: 01-01-1990

    Application says these are the possible matches
    Matt ABc
    Scott Test
    Bio Science— this is a random record

    So is there a way to eliminate Is there a way to eliminate random records from the list?

    Thanks,
    Sandhya

    @diya_any The v1.x participant matching is described here:

    It should help you understand why you are getting the “random” matches.
