What is a Primary and Cross-reference (x-ref) record type?
EPLS identifies the relationship of an exclusion involving more than one individual and/or firm by linking and tagging one record as the Primary listing and the other(s) as a Cross-reference to the Primary listing. The federal agency determines which records to tag as Primary and Cross-reference(s). A record tagged as Primary will list all parties associated with the exclusion. A record tagged as a Cross-reference will identify its association to a related Primary record.
