• Key Concepts: 
  Address Matching Approval System (AMAS) is a component of SAP’s Enterprise Information Management (EIM) Data Quality Management (DQM) suite. It is designed to help organizations ensure the accuracy and consistency of their customer address data. AMAS uses a combination of automated and manual processes to match customer addresses against a reference database, and then approve or reject the matches based on user-defined criteria. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use AMAS, organizations must first define their address matching criteria. This includes setting up rules for how addresses should be matched, such as whether to match on street name, city, state, or zip code. Once the criteria are set, AMAS will automatically match customer addresses against the reference database and present the results to the user for approval or rejection. The user can then review the matches and approve or reject them based on their own criteria. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up AMAS, it is important to ensure that the address matching criteria are as specific as possible. This will help ensure that only accurate matches are approved and that any potential errors are caught before they become an issue. Additionally, it is important to regularly review the results of AMAS to ensure that all matches are being approved correctly.
