Patent families not being matched during import or in the search panel can have various causes. Possible reasons include:
- The documents are too young and have not been published yet.
- The uploaded application, publication, or patent numbers have a format that is not recognized by the PatentSight Business Intelligence.
- The patent numbers are not part of DOCDB and are consequently not available for analysis in the PatentSight BI. → PatentSight Data Coverage
Consult the article → Importable Number Format to find out more about importable patent number formats and the import options available in the PatentSight Business Intelligence.
Tip:
If there are patent documents in your patent list, which cannot be matched, please do not hesitate to contact your Customer Success Manager or send a message to support@lexisnexisip.com
