Regardless of the value you specify for the NCOA Footnote Legend config.ini setting, the NCOALink Processing Summary Report includes a long text description of each footnote in the USPS NCOALink Footnote Descriptions section at the end of the report.

Note: If the USPS NCOA Return Code file (return.lst) is not found in the NCOALink database folder, internal default footnote descriptions display in the report in an all lowercase font. If the USPS NCOA Return Code file (return.lst) is found in the NCOALink database folder, USPS footnote descriptions display in the report in an all uppercase font.

The sample NCOALink Processing Summary Report presented here is current at the time this User's Guide was published. As always, for the most current USPS related information on NCOALink, go to https://postalpro.usps.com/ and select Move Update and then NCOALink.
