Customer Data Parser Change Flag - trillium_discovery - trillium_quality - 17.1

The Customer Data Parser (CDP) will flag changes to the original data if the flag option is enabled (Options > Advanced > Flag name/street/geography line changes). The default is not to flag any changes. A change can be a recode from the definitions tables or the correction of a city name from the city table. As long as the value in the recoded attribute is different from the original attribute in the Parser Repository (PREPOS), it is considered a change.

The change flag will be stored in a section of attributes in the Parser Repository (PREPOS). This section of attributes will be divided into three sub-sections: street line changes, geography line changes, and name line changes. Each changed flag attribute corresponds to a pair of recoded and original attributes and is one character long. A value of '1' in a changed flag attribute indicates that an original attribute has changed. If there is no change, then the changed flag attribute will be blank.
