Global Preferred Descriptor

Determines the format of the building descriptor, sub-building descriptor, and street descriptor that the Address Validator transformation writes to the output data. Select a descriptor when the address reference data for the destination country contains a range of descriptors for one or more of the data elements.

The following table describes the options on the property:

Option	Description
Database	Returns the descriptor that the reference database specifies for the element in the address. If the database does not specify a descriptor for the address, the transformation copies the input value to the output address. Database is the default value.
Long	Returns the complete form of the descriptor, for example `Street`.
Preserve Input	Copies the descriptor from the input address to the output address. If the input descriptor is not a valid version of the descriptor, the transformation returns an equivalent valid descriptor from the reference database.
Short	Returns an abbreviated form of the descriptor, for example `St`.
