Matching logic

Standard matching rules are used to match records within IT Glue when pulling over data from Autotask. The sync will discover accounts, configuration items, contacts, and account/contact addresses in Autotask and match them to data in IT Glue using the Autotask fields shown in the table below:

Rule Matches on
Organization Account Name
Contacts (Account) AND (First Name AND Last Name)
Configurations

(Account) AND (Configuration Item Type AND Reference Name) AND (Serial Number) ***

Locations (Account) AND (Address 1 AND Address 2 AND City AND State/Province AND Country)
Tickets (Account) AND (Ticket Number)

If the matching logic is unsuccessful in finding a match, a new record is created. When one or more identical matches are found, the item that was created first is matched on.

*** Configurations: If there is more than one match, the system will try to narrow the matches using the serial number before matching on the date created.
