Now that you have defined your input information, you will need to define your output information. In this part of the tutorial, you will define how to store the following information:
-
5-digit ZIP Code
-
Standardized address
-
Individual address elements
-
Normalized address lines
-
Standardized city and state information
-
ZIP + 4 Code
-
Carrier route code
-
Return codes
-
Default indicators
-
Information returned from the Line of Travel master file
Before you begin defining this information, you need to determine how you want your output information to appear in the output record. For your sample job, you want CODE-1 Plus to store the output records in the same format as the input records, with the ZIP + 4 Code and carrier route code added as follows.
|
Position |
Data Element |
|---|---|
|
116-120 |
ZIP + 4 Code (stored with preceding hyphen) |
|
122-125 |
Carrier route code |
|
126-130 |
LOT Code (numeric and alphabetic) |
Remember, on page 233 your ZIP Code information ended in position 115—that is why the ZIP + 4 Code starts in position 116.
In addition, you want CODE-1 Plus to store the normalized address (if no match was found), the individual standardized address elements, and return codes. You want these components stored as follows:
|
Position |
Data Element |
|---|---|
|
131-181 |
Address Elements: House Number (10 characters in length) Leading Directional (2 characters in length) Street Name (15 characters in length) Street Suffix (4 characters in length) Apartment Designator (1 character in length) Apartment Number (1 character in length) |
|
183-212 |
Normalized Address Line 1 |
|
214-238 |
Normalized Address Line 2 |
|
240-282 |
Return Codes |
You are now ready to define your output information.
