Sub-building Number Ports

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

Sub-building data identifies a mailbox location inside a building, such as an apartment, suite, or floor. The Address Validator transformation parses the number "200" in "79 Park Avenue, Apartment 200" to a Sub-building Number port.

The Sub-building Number ports contain a subset of the data in the Sub-building Complete ports.

Sub-building Number Usage

Select a Sub-building Number input port when an input address contains apartment, floor, or suite number data in a single port.

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

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

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

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

Most countries use Sub-building Number 1 or Sub-building Number 2 ports. You may need to select a port in the Sub-building Number 3 through Sub-building Number 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, and 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
