The Multi Matte ID Render Element provides a mask for individual objects and/or materials, based on the Multi Matte IDs that have been added as Extra V-Ray Attributes.
The Multi Matte ID Render Element contains no shading information at all, and only contains blocks of color that correspond to each Multi Matte ID . It uses the Multi Matte ID set when the Material ID attribute is added to a material.
