Results

The tPatternMasking component alters the values from the input data and outputs original and substitute records.

The input data has been altered but the output data looks real and consistent. The substitute data is still usable for non-production purposes.

The first record is labeled as true because 1EG4-T-E5-MK73 is an original record. The second record is labeled as false because 7H24-E-K4-HY91 is a substitute record:
  • The first character is replaced with a digit from the 1 to 9 range, as defined in the tPatternMasking properties.
  • The second, fifth, eighth, and ninth characters are replaced with a letter from the list of authorized values defined in the enumeration file.
  • The third and sixth characters are replaced with one of the authorized alphanumeric values defined in the enumeration file.
  • The fourth and seventh characters are replaced with a digit from the 0 to 9 range, as defined in the tPatternMasking properties.
  • The last two characters are replaced with a number from the 0 to 99 range, as defined in the tPatternMasking properties.
  • The input uses dashes as separators and they remain unchanged in the output.

The tPatternMasking component outputs null for 0EF6-T-F4-AC44 because this value is invalid: the first character, 0, is out of the specified range ("1,9").
