Does anyone have data standards they would be willing to share with us? We are working on revamping how we enter constituent data into our database. We had them a while back and with staff turn over it has turned into the wide west of how you enter data!
Along those lines does anyone have AKA's auto populate with common things i.e. St., St, Saint?
For addresses, I follow the USPS Postal Addressing Standards which has incredibly thorough documentation on every kind of address you could possibly imagine. It takes away any guesswork or personal preferences, and I figure they are the preeminent authority anyway!
If I ever questioned a specific address, I would run it through their ZIP Code Lookup tool which will give you the exact way the USPS formats the address.
