Street Post-Descriptor Ports

Street Post-Descriptor Ports

Input and output ports that contain descriptive data that comes after the street name in an address record.
The Street Pre-Descriptor value can specify a street in an area where several streets have a common Street Name value. For example, postdescriptors separate "Fourth Avenue" and "Fourth Street." The Street Post-Descriptor port contains a subset of the data in the Street Complete port. The ports are linked by number, so that for example Street Post-Descriptor 1 is a subset of Street Complete 1.

Street Post-Descriptor Usage

Select a Street Pre-Descriptor input port when an input address contains descriptive data for a street name in a single port and the data comes after the street name.
Select a Street Post-Descriptor output port to write descriptive data that comes after a street name to a single port.
Consider the following guidelines when you use Street Post-Descriptor ports:
  • There are six Street Post-Descriptor ports. If an address record contains a postdescriptor for more than one street, select additional Street Post-Descriptor ports.
  • A street address may use multiple words for descriptive data. In this case, a descriptive output port contains all the words that describe the street. For example, the Address Validator transformation parses "Park Drive" to a single port for the street address "Lincoln Park Drive."
  • Most countries use Street Post-Descriptor 1 or Street Post-Descriptor 2 ports. You may need to select a port in the Street Post-Descriptor 3 through Street Post-Descriptor 6 range if the street data is highly complex.
  • For each street in an address, select a Street Complete input port or select one or more of the Street Name, Street Post-Descriptor, Street Post-Directional, Street Pre-Descriptor, or Street Pre-Directional ports.
    You can select all street data ports as outputs.
