Understanding Your BatchData Property Skip Trace Results
When your skip tracing order is complete, Property Skip Trace provides you with an Excel file containing the most accurate and up-to-date contact information for the property addresses you submitted.
This guide explains each section and field in your results file, so you can interpret and use the data effectively.
The output file is organized into four distinct sections, in the order they appear:
Preserved Input Fields (Original Data)
Input Fields
Basic Output Fields
Advanced Skip Trace Fields
1. Preserved Input Fields (Original Data)
To ensure data integrity, your output file includes all columns from the original uploaded file, even those that were not used for matching (e.g., internal notes, ID numbers).
Location: These columns appear at the very beginning of the output file.
Column Name: The original column headers and data are kept intact.
Example: If your original file contained a column named Internal_Ref_ID, it will appear in the output file with the exact same name and data.
2. Input Fields
These fields reflect the data that you mapped for BatchData to match. They are included for easy reference and are all prefixed with "Input Data".
A. Mandatory Input Fields (Property Location)
The following fields were required to process your skip trace order:
Input Data: Property Address
Input Data: Property City

B. Optional Input Fields (Owner & Mailing Details)
The following fields were optional to process your skip trace order:
Input Data: First Name and/or Last Name
