| | 31 | - an exact match of first name and last name (if both are present in the import item), or |
| | 32 | - alternatively, an exact match of the initials (if present in the import item) |
| | 33 | |

| | 44 | If any of the criteria is missing from either the existing record or the import item, the test will not be performed (0 points). |
| | 45 | |
| | 46 | If the sum of the points is less than 0, the record will not be regarded as a match. |
| | 47 | |
