Locality Name Ports

Locality Name Ports

Input and output ports that contain locality data.
Locality Name 1 identifies the primary locality in the address. A county is the primary locality within a state of the United States.
The locality ports are related by number. For example, Locality Complete 1 contains the information in the Locality Name 1 and Locality Sort Code 1 ports.

Locality Name Usage

Select a Locality Name input port to read the primary locality from the input address.
Select a Locality Name output port to write the primary locality to the validated address.
Consider the following guidelines when you use Locality Name ports:
  • If an address contains multiple locality levels, use multiple locality ports. For example, use Locality Complete 1 or Locality Name 1 for the primary or largest locality in the address. Use Locality Complete 2 or Locality Name 2 to identify a town within Locality Complete 1 or Locality Name 1.
  • There are six Locality Name ports. Most countries use Locality Name 1 or Locality Name 2. You may need to select additional locality ports if the locality data is highly complex.
  • Select a Locality Complete 1 input port or select one or more of the Locality Name 1 or Locality Sort Code 1 input ports.
  • You can select all locality data output ports, except ports Locality Sort Code 2 through Locality Sort Code 6. The Locality Sort Code 2 through Locality Sort Code 6 ports are reserved for future use.
