Abstract
A source record from an enterprise is received at a registry at a master data management system at a host enterprise. The enterprise is located remotely from the host enterprise. The source record has a source identifier. A data record is generated based on the source record and the data record has a first registry identifier. The data record is stored at a data store. The registry maintains a link identifying a relationship between the registry identifier and the source identifier. A reference engine determines a value of an attribute of a field of the source record identifies a second source record, and determines whether the registry includes a second registry identifier associated with a second data record generated based on the second source record. The reference engine sets an indicator identifying the data record if the registry does not include the second registry identifier, and clears the indicator if the registry does include the second registry identifier.
