Spectrum Global Address Validation uses the US Addressing Options to define U.S. address processing.
Option Name | Description |
---|---|
CASS flag | Process in a United States Postal Service (USPS) CASS-certified
mode. Note: If you are performing Global Address Validation US
Addressing processing outside of the physical United States, you
must disable the Delivery Point Validation (DPV), LACSLink,
SuiteLink, and Residential Delivery Indicator (RDI) options. You
will not be able to run in a USPS CASS-certified mode.
|
Assign abbreviated city | Return abbreviated city names in the label lines. |
Remove noise characters | Remove input noise characters (for example, unnecessary punctuation and blanks). |
Return input firm | Return the input firm. |
All street matching | Perform All Street Matching (ASM) processing. ASM applies additional matching logic to correct errors in street names to find a match. For example, when the first letter of a street is misspelled or missing on input, ASM searches all street names in a locality to find an input address. ASM provides the best address validation but may reduce performance. ASM processing is available for U.S. addresses only. |
R777 deliverable | Addresses with Carrier Route code R777 are phantom
routes and are not eligible for street delivery. However,
since these addresses are assigned a ZIP + 4 code by the
USPS, these addresses are marked as deliverable. If you do
not want the addresses with Carrier Route code R777 marked
as deliverable, disable this option and the following
actions are performed for the address:
|
Convert secondary to PMB | Convert secondary information to Private Mail Box (PMB) under the
following conditions:
|
Save unit in separate field | Do not merge separate second unit and PMB information in the output address line. Save unit in a separate field. |
Save PMB in separate field | Do not merge separate second unit and PMB information in the output address line. Save PMB in a separate field. |
Return alias street | Return alias street names in the label line. An alias street
name is an alternate name for a street, maintained at the
ranged ZIP + 4 Code level.
|
Dual address | If the input file contains dual addresses (one a
conventional address, a second containing a PO Box address),
this field determines the order to use to process and match
the addresses. If the selected address is valid, processing
stops. If the selected address does not validate, processing
attempts to code the secondary address.
|
VeriMove data block | The VeriMove data block option determines whether to return 250-bytes of additional information codes to the output file. This additional information can be used as input to Precisely's VeriMove product to comply with USPSĀ® Move Update requirements. |
