← Profiler Object Reference
Result Code Use
Melissa Data's products use a result code system to indicate data quality; the status and any errors. These result codes are four-character codes (two letters followed by two numbers), delimited by commas. Unlike other Melissa Data products, result codes in the Profiler Object are Column Specific. Currently, there are close to 50 possible results codes for Profiler Object alone.
Example
An example returned result code string:
QS17, QS40
Instead of looking at multiple properties and methods to determine status, you can look at the output of the results parameter.
From this output you can determine that the column is:
| Code
|
Short Description
|
Long Description
|
| QS17
|
|
Value contains trailing spaces.
|
| QS40
|
|
Zip/Postal Code value has 5-digit ZIP with no Plus 4.
|
Be sure to reference Result Codes for a list of Melissa Data's result codes.
Understanding the Code
To fully understand result codes, you need to know them. Knowing what codes are possible and what they indicate will be key in building an effective application. It is useful to know all the codes, but this does not necessarily mean you will use them all. Just because you have a toolbox, doesn't mean you will also try to use a screwdriver along with a hammer on a nail.
Results Codes Will Change. Code for It
Melissa Data is always innovating and adding new information and enrichments. You will not be able to know exactly what new codes may be introduced in the future, but we can still account for them. Always use the string.Contains() or an equivalent function when detecting for codes, so reordering and future additions will not affect your current code. Also, have all records that do not pass your filter become a “bad” record. This allows for future codes to be added without records being lost if you don't specifically filter for them.
