Patent ID: 8626773

Claim:
An article of manufacture including a non-transitory computer readable storage medium to tangibly store instructions, which when executed by a computer, causes the computer to: identify a plurality of records; select a reference record from the plurality of records; merge one or more non-reference records into the reference record to generate a merged reference record, wherein the merged reference record includes one or more fields missing in the reference record and wherein the missing fields are included as blank fields in the merged reference record; merge the merged reference record into one or more non-reference records to generate respective one or more merged non-reference records, wherein a merged non-reference record includes one or more fields missing in a corresponding non-reference record and wherein the missing fields are included as the blank fields in the merged non-reference record in positions corresponding to the positions of the fields in the merged reference record; display the merged reference record and the merged non-reference record on a user interface in a card view, wherein the merged reference record and the merged non-reference record are aligned relative to each other; identify a master record, wherein the master record is a record selected by a user; identify a match score for each merged non-master record, wherein the match score of a merged non-master record indicates a percentage of match of the merged non-master record with a merged master record; identify a suspect flag for each merged non-master record indicating whether the merged non-master record is a suspected record that is required to be reviewed, wherein the merged non-master record is the suspected record when the match score of the merged non-master record is within a predefined range; and display the merged non-master records along with their respective match score and the suspect flag on the user interface.
