Abstract

Task handling in a master data management (MDM) system. A task pattern associated with a task completed is identified, in a task handling system. If the identified task pattern matches an existing task pattern in a task patterns database, then a pattern count value of the matching existing task pattern is incremented, and the task patterns database is searched for task patterns that are similar to the matching existing task pattern. If similar task patterns are identified, for each of the similar task patterns, a duplicate pattern count is specified that is based on the number of identified similar task patterns. If the duplicate pattern count for any one of the similar task patterns exceeds a specified threshold, a new task is created comprising data on completion actions for the matching existing task pattern and each of the one or more similar task patterns.
