Building Name Ports

Input and output ports that contain all building name data in an address record.

The data in a Building Name port is a subset of the data in the corresponding Building Complete port. For example, Building Complete 1 includes all data in Building Name 1.

Building Name Usage

Select a Building Name input port when an input address contains a building name in a single port.

Select a Building Name output port to write the name of a building in the address in a single port.

Consider the following guidelines when you use Building Name ports:

There are six Building Name ports. If an address record contains more than one building name, select additional Building Name ports.

Most countries use Building Name 1 or Building Name 2 ports. You may need to select a port in the Building Name 3 through Building Name 6 range if the building data is highly complex.

For each building in an address, select the Building Complete input port or select one or more of the Building Name, Building Number, or Building Descriptor input ports.

You can select all building data output ports.

The Address Validator transformation can recognize either building name or building number data in an address. If an address contains name and number data for a building, the transformation treats the data as a building name.
