The information columns displayed are controlled in the Data Set.<\/p>\n<p>As well as adding standard fields the information displayed can be enhanced further.<\/p>\n<h2>Identifying Who Wrote the Most Recent History Record<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s often useful to know who wrote the last history record or sent the last email to a Contact or Account when trying to determine which record of a Match Group should be the surviving record into which the duplicates should be merged.&nbsp; To do this, you need to find the most recent History record and then extract the name of the User who was associated with that record.<\/p>\n<p>The process can be broken up into 3 logical elements.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Finding the associated History records for the Accounts on which you\u2019re matching<\/li>\n<li>Identifying the most recent record<\/li>\n<li>Displaying the User Name from the Userinfo table associated with the identified History record<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>To include this information for the Paribus reviewer, a SQL statement can be included within the Information Columns definition to provide the USER Name.&nbsp; An example is below:<\/p>\n<p>(SELECT USERNAME FROM USERINFO WHERE USERID = (SELECT TOP 1 COMPLETEDUSER FROM HISTORY WHERE HISTORY.ACCOUNTID = ACCOUNT.ACCOUNTID ORDER BY COMPLETEDDATE DESC)) AS \u2018Last History User\u2019<\/p>\n<p>For example, it would be added as follows:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.qgate.co.uk\/knowledge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/figure-2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4936\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qgate.co.uk\/knowledge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/figure-2.png\" alt=\"Paribus Discovery SQL Statement\" width=\"538\" height=\"588\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.paribuscloud.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/figure-2.png 538w, https:\/\/www.paribuscloud.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/figure-2-274x300.png 274w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 538px) 100vw, 538px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Resulting in more detail being available for the reviewer and therefore a more informed decision.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.qgate.co.uk\/knowledge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Figure-3.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4937\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qgate.co.uk\/knowledge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Figure-3.png\" alt=\"Paribus Discovery Last User History\" width=\"864\" height=\"344\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.paribuscloud.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Figure-3.png 864w, https:\/\/www.paribuscloud.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Figure-3-300x119.png 300w, https:\/\/www.paribuscloud.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Figure-3-624x248.png 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 864px) 100vw, 864px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>For more information on managing the information columns in Paribus 365&#x2122;, please use one of the links below.<\/p>\n<p><!----------------------------- Article Footer Start - DO NOT REMOVE ------------------------------><\/p>\n<table style=\"border-bottom: none;\" summary=\"Article Summary\">\n<tbody>\n<tr class=\"qgkb-articleheader-table-summary\">\n<td style=\"width: 25%;
