Selecting Input Entities - trillium_discovery - trillium_quality - 17.2

To select input entities

1. Select the input entities to include in the project and click >. You can also double-click the entities to add to the project.
   • By default, entities that were created previously as the output of a Quality process are omitted from the selection list. If you prefer to include them, select the Display all entities check box to list all entities.
   • Use the Filter field to filter the entities in the list. For example, if you are looking for the entities that were created in 2011, enter "2011" in the Filter field. If you are looking for dynamic entities only, enter "dynamic" in the field.
   • When used for real-time processing, Name and Address projects can include only one input entity in the cleansing flow. Selecting multiple entities will display a message advising you that the project will not be suitable for real-time deployment. If the extra input entity will be an input to a Reference Matcher, and you will configure the project so the Reference Matcher will be the first process in your project, you can ignore this message.
   • Click and drag the row in the Selected Entities list to change the order in which the entities are processed.
   • If you select a dynamic entity that has over 500 rows and has not been regenerated, by default, the first 500 data rows in the source are used to generate the associated flat file. This flat file can be regenerated with a lesser or greater number of rows by regenerating the input data.
2. Click Next.
   Note: If you select one or more entities associated with projects in which the data processing option was set to minimize disk space, a window opens alerting you that the new project will use the same option. Click Yes to continue or No to select other entities. If necessary, you can change this option after you create the project. For information, see Minimize Disk Space and Maximize Performance.

   The Countries window opens, displaying a list of available countries that have a country-specific project template. Go to the next procedure to select countries.
