Source Data Identifier - Text Processing Options

Processing options differ depending on the type of data element you created.

Text processing options include value alignment and normalization. Value alignment specifies how outbound values are aligned and filled when the source field is a fixed-length character field. The first option is the default.

Value Alignment options include:

• Use the options specified in the Data Element (default)
• Left justify and blank fill
• Right justify and blank fill

Normalization options include:

• Use the text normalization options specified in the Data Element (default)

• Use normalization expression for this data identifier. If you select this option, click Edit next to the Inbound expression field or the Outbound expression field. The Expression Builder will appear allowing you to create the desired expression.
