Geocoding With Alternate Street Names
Hello,
I have set up my locator and it works for site address points with the conventional street name, but I cannot figure out how to set up the alternate street name table so that the geocoder and usilize the alternative street names.
My Road Centerline input feature class (Street Address Table) has a field called "RoadID" (text). My Road Centerlines are segmented (they break at each intersection with another feature) so there are many features that make up a single street. The RoadID field has a unique value for each set of features that make up the same road.
For example:
SOUTH_2ND_STREET
SOUTH_2ND_STREET
SOUTH_2ND_STREET
SOUTH_2ND_STREET
3RD_STREET
3RD_STREET
ALDER_STREET
ALDER_DRIVE
WEST_STATE_ROUTE_4
WEST_STATE_ROUTE_4
WEST_STATE_ROUTE_4
WEST_STATE_ROUTE_4
WEST_STATE_ROUTE_4
My Alternative Street Name Table has a field called "RoadID" (text) along with a "AltNameWah" field that contains the alternative name. For example,
WEST_STATE_ROUTE_4 may also be called SR4, WA-4, HWY 4, Highway 4, etc
However, when I create the locator, the locater is not able to use the alternative names.
(empty results search for 100 WA-4)
I receive the following warning when running the locate tool:
WARNING 003681: Only map 'StreetAddress.FEATURE_ID' when there are duplicate features in the primary data.Locator build started
Data processing started
WARNING 002967: The alternate table 'Alternative_Road_Name_Table_Wahkiakum' cannot be applied to any of the primary feature classes. The locator will be built without this table.those errors link here:

But what are the "appropriate fields assigned to the primary feature class or classes." I cannot find where the appropriate fields are documented. Thanks.
