A system and method may retrieve transaction data for a plurality of electronic payment system transactions. The transaction data may describe a plurality of electronic payment transactions between a payment network system and a plurality of merchants. The transaction data may include a transaction location and a merchant store number. The system and method may parse the transaction data to identify the transaction location and the merchant store number and analyze the retrieved and parsed transaction data to identify one or more centroids for at least a portion of the retrieved and parsed transaction data. The one or more centroids may correspond to a merchant location for each transaction of the retrieved and parsed transaction data. The system and method may then clean the retrieved and parsed transaction data having a transaction location outside a threshold distance from the one or more centroids to include accurate merchant store number data.

System and method for determining merchant store number

Provided is a method for managing source identifiers of clustered records, which may include receiving a plurality of records, each having identification data associated with a source thereof. The records may be sorted into a first plurality of clusters. A first source identifier may be generated for each cluster. Update data associated with an update to the records may be received. At least some of the records may be sorted into a second plurality of clusters. A first cluster of the second plurality of clusters may have first identification data different from at least one cluster of the first plurality of clusters, and a second cluster of the second plurality of clusters may have identification data that substantially matches the at least one cluster. Whether to assign the first source identifier to the first or second cluster may be determined. A system and computer program product are also disclosed.
