Delivery Sequence File (DSF2) footnotes are 2-character, USPS-defined codes that represent the changes that were made to the input address during the matching process. Up to 50 of these codes may be stored by CODE-1 Plus for each record. After CODE-1 Plus has finished processing, you can run your output file through a delivery sequence program (not provided by Precisely) to sort your records into delivery sequence. The delivery sequence program uses these footnotes to sort the records.
