#54 Senzing export changing to FEATURES list; identifier namespacing improved

Effective date:took effect on

Announcement:

The layout of identifying features in the Senzing export format is changing from root-level fields to the current best practice of a list of values in the FEATURES field.

Identifier types with a known scheme (INN, OGRN, VAT, registration numbers, …) are now emitted with that type, plus a country where one is known (INN and OGRN are always ru). Such an identifier only keeps two entities apart when both carry the same type and country and the numbers differ. A matching number under a different or missing type or country still counts as supporting evidence, so it can produce a POSSIBLY_SAME relationship or contribute to a merge, but it never blocks one.

Some additional field types have been defined. The configuration in senzing_config_updates.gtc should be applied before loading the latest export. Installations older than Senzing 4.4 should also apply senzing_config_updates_tax_id_type.gtc.
