3. Select an object. Select an existing matching rule or create one. Only matching rules for the object you select are available. If you like, edit the default job name. Click **Run**.

    You can’t delete or edit the name or description after creating a job. If you’re working toward complying with various data protection and privacy regulations, consider excluding personal data from the name and description.
    
    The job summary page shows the status of jobs. You’re notified by email when a job is finished.

4. To rerun a job, click **New Job**, and then select the same object and matching rule.

6. To share the results of a job, run a report on the duplicate record set generated by the job.
