Sub-building Name Ports

Input and output ports that contain the sub-building name data in an address record.

Sub-building data identifies a mailbox location inside a building, such as an apartment, suite, or floor. For example, the Address Validator transformation parses "Honeymoon" in "Honeymoon Suite" to a Sub-building Name port.

Sub-building ports are related by port number. For example, Sub-building Complete 1 contains all data in Sub-building Descriptor 1, Sub-building Name 1, and Sub-building Number 1 ports.

Sub-building Name Usage

Select a Sub-building Name input port when an input address contains the name of an apartment, floor, or suite in a single port.

Select a Sub-building Name output port to write the apartment, floor, or suite name to a single port.

Consider the following guidelines when you use Sub-building Name ports:

There are six Sub-building Name ports. If an address record contains more than one sub-building level, select additional Sub-building Name ports.

The Address Validator transformation does not parse the sub-building data by type. One address may have apartment data at sub-building 1 level, while another address may have floor data at sub-building 1 level and apartment data at sub-building 2 level.

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

For each sub-building level in an address, select a Sub-building Complete input port or select one or more of the Sub-building Descriptor, Sub-building Name, or Sub-building Number input ports.

You can select all sub-building data output ports.

The Address Validator transformation parses alphanumeric sub-building data as numeric data. For example, "33C" in "Apartment 33C" is an apartment number.
