The Daily Delete file contains addresses that are pending deletion or adjustment from NCOALink. When an address from the input file is found in the Daily Delete file, the output file will not be updated with the forwarding address currently in NCOALink and the output record's NCOA Forwarding Footnote field will contain a value of 66 (if the NCOA Forwarding Footnote field is defined in the output definition).

Note: USPS regulations require all NCOALink licensees to use the Daily Delete File. Licensees must download and install this file daily.

To use the Daily Delete file, follow these steps.

  1. Download the Daily Delete file from the USPS website.
  2. In the VeriMove main window, double-click the job you want.
  3. On the General tab, check the box Use Daily Delete File (ASCII format). USPS regulations require all NCOALink licensees to use the Daily Delete File. Licensees must download and install this file daily.
  4. Do one of the following:
    • If you are defining a job to run on Windows, in the File Path field, enter the Daily Delete file path or click Browse to open a dialog box and navigate to the location of the Daily Delete file.
    • Select one of the following options if you are defining a job to execute on Unix or Linux.
      • Define the path to the Daily Delete file using the GUI for your target platform.
      • Export the job from VeriMove (by selecting File > Export) and open the job definition file (the .def file) in a text editor and modify the tag <NCOADailyDelete> to specify the path to the Daily Delete file.
    • If you are defining a job that to be executed on z/OS, modify the DLYDEL DD statement in the MU JCL. Also modify the DLYHDR DD statement for the Daily Delete header.
    • If you are defining a job that to be executed on IBM i, use the IBM i screen NLCPG110 to specify the location of the Daily Delete data. For more information, see the VeriMove User's Guide for IBM i.
      Note: If you check the Use Daily Delete File (ASCII Format) box, but leave the File Path field blank in the Windows GUI, the Errors tab displays an error indicating you must specify a path to the Daily Delete file.
      Note: The Daily Delete header file must be located in the same path as the Daily Delete file on non-mainframe platforms.
