  • 1.  Addresses: Overwriting non-null attribute values with Nulls in crosswalk

    Posted 02-27-2024 11:17

    Addresses sometimes produce mail returns.  In that case the source system will edit the record so that the address is NULL.  Will passing in an empty string for the attributes null out the crosswalk values when you use the partial override option?

    Thank you,

    Max

    Max,

    Rather than nulling out the address.  (Assuming you're using a Location Entity Type) I recommend;

    1. Mark the address as invalid/do not mail
    2. Set the crosswalk deleteDate
    3. End date the relationship

    You can null out the data, but isn't that going result in "empty" addresses?
