To use LACSLink when calling C1MATCHI from your own driver, one of three conditions must be returned from C1MATCHI:
-
The matched P9O output address has a LACS indicator from the database (P9OLACS)
-
The P9O General Return Code is not set to blank, B, or X in the output area (P9OGRC)
-
The P9O default record indicator and the USPS record type are returning a value of "R" in the output area (P9ODFR and P9ORTP).
To activate LACSLink in callable mode, call the CODE-1 Plus matcher and set the LACSLink indicator as shown below.

P9OLACSLINK-IND |
1 |
Indicates if a table was matched: Blank No LACS processing occurred. F LACS seed violation has occurred. N No match occurred or a new address would not convert at run time. S Input address contained both primary and secondary information but match occurred using only primary information. Y Full match occurred. |

P9OLACSLINK-RC |
2 |
Indicates the success of the LACSLink process: Blank No LACS processing occurred. A LACS record match. 00 No match. 0 Address was passed to LACS process, but could not be coded by LACS. 1 Address was successfully coded through the LACS process. 2 A LACS False/Positive record was encountered, but software is operating in a NCOA/No Stop Capacity. As such, NCOA/No Stop Capacity allows for the LACS function to continue processing when a seed record is encountered. 09 LACSLink was able to find the input address on its internal tables but for some reason did not return the new (converted) address. 14 Match found LACS record but would not convert. 92 Match with secondary information. |
