[ATTOM] parcel number information for linking?

Hi,

I’m trying to link ATTOM data with Builty dataset, and parcel number is the key field needed.
But in the Dewey data, here’s what I see:

  • PARCELNUMBERRAW (the primary/unique parcel ID) → 0% filled
  • PARCELNUMBERFORMATTED (deprecated) → 100% filled
  • PARCELNUMBERPREVIOUS → 100% filled
  • Everything else → 0% filled (except PARCELSHELLRECORD)

My questions:

  • Which parcel field should I use to link ATTOM to Builty?
  • Should PARCELNUMBERRAW be populated?
  • Is it OK to use PARCELNUMBERFORMATTED even though it’s deprecated?

Thanks for helping clarify—just need to know which parcel ID is safe and reliable to use.

Best,
