Creating Fuzzy Matching functionality in Anaplan
Hi all Anaplanners,
Does anyone have any insights in build the fuzzy matching functionality inside of Anaplan to identify the likelihood of duplicated strings ( company name, rep name, etc)? Alteryx have the fuzzy matching functionality and that's pretty much what I want to replicate inside Anaplan as well.
Thanks,
Jim

Agree with @andrewtye !
In theory you could try to do for example Jaro algorithm to calculate similiraties of text items but that wouldn't really be something where Anaplan is at it's best.1

Yeah that is exactly what I do now in alteryx. This is more like a mini project I am exploring for fun (no life!). Thanks for replying @andrewtye @pyrypeura
