Pre-processed verification match level = 4 (premises): the level to which the input data matches the available reference data prior to any changes or additions performed during the verification process.
-
Parsing status = I (identified and parsed): all components of the input data have been able to be identified and placed into output fields.
-
Lexicon identification match level = 4 (premises): using pattern matching, a numeric value or word has been identified as a premise number or name.
