I've created Custom DMO using existing Account DMO with profile category. When trying to create an identity resolution rule, I can see only Account & Individual DMO. Is there any thing that I'm missing or it's not doable? My intention is to create a separate Identity Resolution rule for Trainers from Custom DMO. Any suggestions from experience would be appreciated.

Short Answer - No, we cannot use custom DMOs for IR rules.
Logic: The whole point having DLOs and DMOs as separate layers is to have all external data objects mapped to the Data360's interal Data Model. Specifically for the DLOs of type 'Profile' must be mapped to specific DMOs (Individual, Account, Lead or Household) and corresponding Contact Point Objects to be able to take part in the Match rules.
That is the whole point of having the entire Party Data Model (
https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/platform/data-models/guide/party-overview.html), where all the DMOs are already connected with each other. All you need to do is to map the data coming from outside (DSOs and DLOs) to the right DMOs, and Data360 takes care of all relationship building.
Hope this helps.
