What is the name of "inaccuracies" in two lines in information systems?

It often happens when you work with information systems, especially when there is interaction between heterogeneous systems, situations arise when in one system an entity is encoded in this way, and in another in a different way. For example, now I am making a foreign site, it is encoded in BL in one place, Blvd in another, in the third Boul, in the fourth Boulevard.
Another variety with punctuation, they are in one place separated by a comma, in another by a space, in the third by a non-breaking space nbsp, etc.
Is there a definition for this phenomenon in information systems theory?
