Managing Decode Secondary Divisions

To convert multiple terms for the same entity to a standard naming convention, use the Decode Secondary Divisions (Scndry Div) tab. Typically, you use this feature to convert state names for batch processing. For example, you can change California and California state to CA, which is the standard naming convention in the data dictionary.
