Persistent Assignee Identifiers

Are disambiguated assignee ids persistent across database updates? If not, would it be possible to create a persistent_assignee_disamb file similar to the persistent_inventor_disamb file?

RE: PERSISTENT ASSIGNEE IDENTIFIERS

Hello,

Unfortunately, disambiguated assignee ids are not persistent across updates right now. In the next version of the update (expect at the end of June), the assignee ids will stay largely static (for technical reasons, they cannot not be perfectly persistent) and a lookup table will be provided similar to the persistent_inventor_disambig table.

Thanks,

PVTeam
