COmanage Match is a multi-tenant platform, where each tenant is a Matchgrid. (Most deployment models are likely to only need a single Matchgrid.) A Matchgrid is configured with one or more Attributes, which are the data fields used for matching operations. Matching operations are governed by Match Rules and Rule Attributes.

Inbound requests are grouped by System of Record, as defined in the ID Match API. Access to records is governed by Permissions for the web interface, and API Users for the API.
