KEY-LOGIC Controls

The

KEY-LOGIC

controls define the field and options to build the SSA-NAME3 key. The

KEY-LOGIC

controls uses the following syntax:

FIELD=field name
[KEY_LEVEL=key level]
[NAMEFORMAT=name format]
[UNICODE_ENCODING=Unicode type]
[COMBINE=field name[:combine option]]
[GEOCODE_FORMAT=0|1]

Configure the following definitions:

FIELD (Required): Specifies the field for which you want to build keys. With most standard populations, you can use one of the following predefined fields:
Person_Name
Organization_Name
Address_Part1
Geocode
Product_Name
You can use only one key field in a function call. If you want to build a key on another field that contains a different type of data, use two separate functions so that you can store the keys in two separate indexes.
KEY_LEVEL (Optional): Specifies the type of key level that you want to build. With most standard populations, you can use one of the following predefined values:
Standard
Extended
Limited
The default value is Standard.
NAMEFORMAT L/R (Optional): Defines whether the major word in a name or address is on the left end or the right end. For example, in Western person names, the family name is on the right end of the names.

Use the
NAMEFORMAT
control to override the default name format. For more information about the default name format for a given standard population field and its effects, from the
Help
menu of SSA-NAME3 Workbench, click
Population Documentation
.
UNICODE_ENCODING (Optional): Instructs
MDM Registry Edition
to accept Unicode data input, and specifies the Unicode format of the data that you want to pass.
COMBINE (Optional): The COMBINE option concatenates multiple data fields. Use the
COMBINE
option to generate keys for the multiple data fields that you want to concatenate before the key building process. The value of the
COMBINE
field must be the same as the FIELD parameter.

Use the following optional COMBINE option to associate with the field name:

DELIM-NONE
: If you set this option when you concatenate multiple data fields, the data fields do not have any space delimiter between the fields.

DELIM-SPACE
: If you set this option when you concatenate multiple data fields, the data fields have a space delimited between the fields. The default value is
DELIM-SPACE
.

For example, if the person names are John and Smith, for
COMBINE=Person_Name:DELIM-SPACE
the result is John SMITH, and for
COMBINE=Person_Name:DELIM-NONE
, the result is JOHNSMITH.
GEOCODE_FORMAT (Optional): Indicates the order of the latitude and longitude coordinates that you specify to generate keys.

If
GEOCODE_FORMAT=1
, SSA-NAME3 considers the geographic coordinates in the following order:

*Geocode*<Longitude> <Latitude>***

If
GEOCODE_FORMAT=0
, SSA-NAME3 considers the geographic coordinates in the following order:

*Geocode*<Latitude> <Longitude>***

The default value is 0.
