How are similar PIDs determined?

Question

Sometimes when I search based on a PID I get multiple requisitions. When I look in the raw data it is not due to the requisition having that ID but more so that the number shows up in similar_pids. How are similar pids determined? What is the criteria for it?

Example:

"similar_pids": [
[removed by moderator] ,
[removed by moderator] ,
[removed by moderator] ,
[removed by moderator] ,
[removed by moderator]
],

Hi ​@akamat,similar_pids are typically populated by auto-calibration, not by a recruiter manually confirming calibration.I don’t have the exact similarity criteria or thresholds for how PIDs get included. ​@rjainCan you please further help here?If a PID search also checks calibration references, a requisition can match because that PID appears in similar_pids, even when it is not the requisition’s own PID.similar_pids can be empty if positions were manually confirmed before auto-calibration ran.
