Remarks	This definition validates using the following criteria: For organizations and individuals the string is either 12 or 13 characters in length. The string length determines if the entity is an individual or organization. The first 3 (for 12-character strings) or 4 characters (for 13-character strings) are alphabetic characters (A-Z, a-z), with a combination that is not deemed to be offensive. The following 6 characters are a valid date in YYMMDD format. The last 3 characters are alphanumeric characters (A-Z, a-z, 0-9).
