I have a phrase I use often in my work, but I'm not sure if I'm hyphenating it correctly. As it stands, I've been writing it like this: The PCI-compliant payment gateway...
I think PCI-compliant is a phrasal adjective in the above example, so I'm writing the sentence as analogous to: The razor-sharp wire... (I may be wrong, though!)
However, I'm confused about whether or not to hyphenate in this case: The payment gateway is PCI compliant.
Should PCI compliant be hyphenated in this second case or not? Is it a phrasal adjective here?
