How the Report Indicator (TWN RI) is Applied

When the credit report is available, there will be a section on the credit report titled The Work Number Report Indicator. Below are examples of a HIT (i.e., a match in The Work Number's database) and NO HIT (i.e., a mismatch in The Work Number's database). 

                                                                                    HIT                                                                                           


                                                                                    NO HIT                                                                                           

Based on the results, clients can easily determine if they should proceed with placing a The Work Number order or not.
