The Transformer lets you scan the original value in the attribute and change, copy, move, flag, or delete the value or set a value in a different attribute. For example, you can use Attribute Scan to remove unwanted data element such as punctuation and spaces so that you can effectively clean up the data for further processing.

You can specify the Attribute Scan settings manually only for the special Transformers (Transformer Data Reconstruction, Transformer Label Lines, and Transformer Pre Postal Matcher). Use the Attribute Scan Wizard for all other Transformer processes.

Note: The Transformer Address Reconstruction and Transformer Global Postal processes are no longer used in the current version. If your previously created projects include the Transformer Address Reconstruction or Transformer Global Postal process, you can continue to use it.

To use Attribute Scan operation

  1. From the Navigation or Project View, right-click the special Transformer process and select Edit Process. You can also double-click the process to open it for editing.
  2. Select the Output Conditionals tab.
  3. Click the Edit Attribute Scans button. The settings for Attribute Scan displays in XML format. The parameter for Attribute Scan (FIELD_SCANNING parameter) contains arguments that specify field justification, scanning, and recoding information.
  4. Edit the arguments under the FIELD_SCANNING parameter directly in the window. See List of Attribute Scan Arguments and Description of Attribute Scan Arguments. For an example, see Scan Change and Scan Flag examples.
  5. Click Finish to save the changes.
    Note: The arguments are specified as XML elements in XML file format. You must therefore follow the standard XML format when you edit them.
