You can use single-line address validation to validate addresses from the following countries:

Australia
Canada
Germany
Great Britain
New Zealand
United States of America

Informatica AddressDoctor Cloud identifies address elements in a single-line address input based on their position in the sequence you enter the elements. So, it is imperative that you follow the order shown in the following table when you enter single-line addresses in the

AddressComplete

element. When you enter an address in single line, ensure that you do not mix Delivery Address Line (DAL) elements and Country-Specific Locality Line (CSLLN) elements.

The following table shows the order of address elements for the supported countries.

Country	Order of Address Elements
Australia	Sub-building, House Number, Street, Main Locality, Province, Postal Code
Canada	Sub-building, House Number, Street, Delivery Service, Main Locality, Province, Postal Code
Germany	Street, House Number, Postal Code, Locality, Province
Great Britain	Sub-building, House Number, Street, Main Locality, SubLocality, Postal Code
New Zealand	Sub-building, House Number, Street, Delivery Service, Locality, Postal Code
United States	Sub-building, House Number, Street, Locality, Province, Postal Code

As you see in the preceding table, the typical sequence of address elements is from the specific to the generic. You must enter the elements in the specified sequence even if you leave out some of the elements from the input. However, to receive optimum results, you provide as many details as possible in the input. Even though delimiters are not mandatory in a single-line address input, Informatica AddressDoctor Cloud considers a comma or semicolon in the input as an element separator. You might receive better suggestions for inputs with element separators. Note that Informatica AddressDoctor Cloud does not support country, organization, building, or contact information in the single-line address input.

If the single-line address input contains only a numeric input, Informatica AddressDoctor Cloud considers it as the Postal Code and returns suggestions accordingly. For countries where the house number appears on the left side of the street name or locality, if the single-line address input begins with a number that is followed by a string, Informatica AddressDoctor Cloud considers the number as a house number and the following string as street name or locality. If Informatica AddressDoctor Cloud does not find a match for this combination, Informatica AddressDoctor Cloud interprets the input as street name without house number or as a combination of postal code and locality.

When there is no perfect match for an input, Informatica AddressDoctor Cloud returns multiple suggestions to help you choose the most appropriate result. If the single-line address input maps to a country that Informatica AddressDoctor does not support for single-line address validation, Informatica AddressDoctor Cloud returns the process status code

W9

. A process status code of W9 denotes that the address was not processed.
