Hi,
I'm trying to understand how the winner rules work for imports. I have a record that I am importing that I am doing an account match on based on account name, city, state & country. I know that my import record will match with 15 accounts so I used "newest record" for the winner rule. When I do the "Preview Match" in the import process it brings back all 15 matches and looks like it will create that new record (Contact) on all 15 accounts. I was expecting to see it match with only one account which would be the newest. Is there something I'm missing?
Thanks!

Hey @lcmonroe - It will show all records, but you should notice it only has the box selected next to record being updated based off your Winner Rule, the other boxes should be blank and therefore not impacted should you elect to execute the job. If that is not the case, please email us at DemandToolsCOE@validity.com to investigate further.

Ahhh, that's what I missed seeing. I see that now when I just did a test with the 1 record. Thank you so much for that clarification!
