6. Navigate to Business Admin > Objects > VMobile Object Configurations.
7. Activate the appropriate VMOCs for the attendee_reconciliation_configuration__v object.

To define custom sorting and auto-match requirements:

1. Navigate to the appropriate em_event_configuration__v record.
2. Navigate to the Event Rules section.
3. Edit the appropriate Sign-in Rule type event rule. See Defining Walk-in Attendee Fields for more information.
4. Ensure the Sign-in Rule has appropriately defined walk-in fields.
5. Navigate to the Attendee Reconciliation Configuration section.
6. Navigate to the appropriate walk-in attendee type Field Settings section. This step is only applicable if Displaying Walk-in Fields by Attendee Type is configured.

7. Populate the following fields:

   • Walk-in Field – Select the appropriate walk-in field you want to score

     Boolean fields are not supported.

   • Search Weight – Enter the appropriate search weight used for scoring the field
   • Trigger Auto Match – Select this checkbox if you want to trigger an automatic reconciliation when there is a match on this field
8. Select the + button. Each added field is assigned a number, used in the Search Logic field.
9. Repeat this process for as many fields as necessary. Up to five fields per section can be added.

10. Update the Search Logic field, if necessary. This logical statement is used to perform the searches in attendee reconciliation. By default, this field populates with all added fields joined together with AND operators.

    The following characters and operators are supported:

    • Numeric characters representing added fields
    • Parentheses
    • AND
    • OR

11. Select Save.

Example Configuration

For example, the business admin user defines the following walk-in fields with the following weights:

They then define the following Search Logic: 1 OR (2 AND 3) OR 4. This ensures that only accounts that meet one of the following criteria are considered for reconciliation for a walk-on attendee, including triggers for automatching.

When a walk-in attendee is created, whether manually, through a sign-in sheet, or via data loading, the walk-in attendee automatically reconciles to an account when the following conditions are met:

• A field on the walk-in attendee exactly matches the corresponding field on an account__v record
• The matching field has been set to trigger an auto-match in the appropriate Attendee Reconciliation Configuration settings

Walk-in attendees do not automatically match to accounts available via OpenData.

If a match is not automatically found, the end user reconciles the walk-in via the normal process.

Search results are weighted based on the fields and score values defined in the appropriate Attendee Reconciliation Configuration settings.

If this feature is configured alongside Merging Duplicate Walk-in Attendees, automatched walk-ins merge into existing attendees, if applicable. If an automatched walk-in is associated with an existing attendee record with a recorded signature, the walk-in does not merge and does not reconcile.
