Remarks The Phone standardization definition also converts legacy Greek phone numbers to the current format, as in the final example above. We recommend that you first use the Phone identification analysis definition to identify invalid numbers before standardizing the phone numbers, as the standardized output of invalid phone numbers might appear confusing.
