Output columns from Standardize Stage/QualityStage
Output columns from Standardize Stage/QualityStage
I'm trying to use QualityStage to read in multiple name columns and mix case strings. I have two input columns 'fname' and 'lname' read into a Standardize stage and after running through the QualityStage ruleset I have now three columns 'fname', 'lname', 'MIXCASE_STRING_mixcase_field'. I set the 'New Process'/ruleset to run against what appeared to be both columns. I'm wondering why then there is only one output field that the ruleset is being applied to. Is there a way to apply it to multiple columns where all fields are running against the ruleset?

You should be able to apply the rule set to multiple columns. However, each rule set expects specific input fields and return predefine Business Intelligence Fields, Matching fields and Reporting Fields that you should find in the dictionary file for the rule
In your case, looks like you are using USNAME rule set so open the rule to see what need to be feed and what will be returning. Basically pass lastname, firstname to the rule and you will get your data standardized

Can you give an example of the data in 'MIXCASE_STRING_mixcase_field' and how it would need to be standardized?wblack wrote:I'm trying to use QualityStage to read in multiple name columns and mix case strings.
