Export Statistics

After an export job completes, MatchLogic displays a summary of statistics describing what was processed and what ended up in the output. These numbers let you quickly verify that the export matched your expectations.

Where to Find Statistics

Export statistics are shown on the Final Export page after a job completes. The statistics panel appears below the execution controls and remains visible until you run a new export. You can also access recent export job results via the Job Status Dialog in the application header.

Statistics Explained

Total Records Processed

The total number of input records that were evaluated during the export run. This includes records from all selected data sources, regardless of whether they ended up in the output. It is the starting point for understanding what fraction of your data was exported.

Records Exported

The number of records written to the export file or destination database. This is the count you should verify against your downstream system after import.

Records Skipped

Records that were evaluated but not included in the export output. Records are skipped when they do not satisfy the criteria of the selected export action. Examples:

  • Suppress All Duplicate Records — duplicate records are skipped; only unique records and masters are exported.
  • Non-Duplicates and Master Records — records identified as non-master duplicates are skipped.
  • Duplicates Only — non-duplicate records are skipped.

A high skipped count is expected and normal for export actions that filter aggressively. If the skipped count is unexpectedly high or low, review your export action setting and the preview.

Groups Processed

The number of duplicate groups that were evaluated during the export. Each group represents a cluster of matched records. This number should align with the group count shown in Match Results.

Execution Time

The total wall-clock time the export job took to complete, shown in seconds or minutes. Useful for planning re-runs and assessing the impact of dataset size changes.

Tip

The relationship Records Exported + Records Skipped = Total Records Processed should always hold. If the numbers do not add up, it may indicate that some records encountered an error during export. Check the job log in the Job Status Dialog for any warnings.

Using Statistics to Validate Your Export

A useful validation workflow:

  1. Before exporting, note the total record count and group count from the Match Results Summary tab.
  2. After export, compare Groups Processed to the match results group count — they should match.
  3. Verify Records Exported is plausible for your chosen export action. For example, if you are exporting only master records with Suppress All Duplicate Records, the exported count should equal approximately the number of unique groups plus the number of singletons (unmatched records).
  4. If Records Skipped is larger or smaller than expected, use the preview to inspect which records are being excluded.

Important

Statistics reflect the most recently completed export job. If you re-run the export with changed settings, the previous statistics are replaced. There is no built-in history of past export statistics — note down important numbers before re-running if you need a record.
