AO Business Keyword Parser
Advanced Object (AO) Business Keyword Parser takes a business name as input and uses a user-defined table of values to generate two separate fields for matching purposes. There are two inputs: the data input stream, and the look-up table used for parsing and standardization (K input). The macro produces a single output containing two fields:
Business_Main is the significant part of Firm Name (for example, National Insurance Company of Ohio).
Business_Keyword is the qualifying part of Firm Name (for example, National Insurance Company of Ohio).
See the Repository Samples folder for an example of AO Business Keyword Parser in use.
