This functionality is used by a Match and Merge solution. For more information, refer to the Match and Merge topic (here) and the Configuring Match and Merge topic (here).
Ad hoc unmerging is intended for users who are knowledgeable about the data and want to start the unmerge wizard. This topic covers ad hoc unmerging, which is performed outside of a workflow. Unmerging via a workflow is defined in the Creating an Unmerge Golden Record Clerical Review Workflow topic here.
For the complete unmerge process, refer to the Match and Merge Clerical Review - Unmerge topic here.
The Unmerge wizard in Web UI (shown below) provides a collaborative process for all unmerge operations.
