PROCEDURE NOTES
Procedure MMTFIDSYMBOLS calls on Table MMTFID to produce a reference list of abbreviations and descriptors to categorize individuals or organizations in Colums [ID CODE 1] and [ID CODE 2] of Table MMTFNL. The codes are often concatenated. Geiger evolved this system of classification to enable complex distinctions to be made in including or excluding individuals in numerous query procedures.
