Table 1. Open Name Parser Parsing Options

Option Name

Description

Parse personal names

Specifies whether to parse personal names.

Natural
The name fields are ordered by Title, First Name, Middle Name, Last Name, and Suffix.
Reverse
The name fields are ordered by Last Name first.
Both
The name fields are ordered using a combination of natural and reverse.

Conjoined names

Specifies whether to parse conjoined names.

Split conjoined names into multiple records

Specifies whether to separate names containing more than one individual into multiple records, for example, Bill & Sally Smith.

Use a Unique ID Generator stage to create an ID for each of the split records.

Parse business names

Specifies whether to parse business names.

Output results as list

Specifies whether to return the parsed name elements in a list form.

Shortcut threshold

Specifies how to balance performance versus quality. A faster performance will result in lower quality output; likewise, higher quality will result in slower performance. When this threshold is met, no other processing will be performed on the record.

The default is 100.
