Process properties

The

Process

tab properties specify the verification process that the address verification mapping applies to the data and also specify the depth to which the mapping verifies the address data.

The following image shows the

Process

tab properties:

You can set the following properties:

Verification mode

Identifies the address verification process that the mapping runs on the input data.

You can select one of the following options:

Verification only. Default value. The mapping verifies and corrects the input address data.

Verification with suggestions. The mapping verifies and corrects the input address data and returns address suggestions for any input address that is ambiguous or incomplete.

Certified verification. The mapping verifies and corrects the input address data to the certification standards that the postal authority in a country specifies. You can perform certified verification on addresses in Australia, Canada, France, New Zealand, and the United States.

The verifier complies with the following postal certifications:

Address Matching Approval System (AMAS) certification for Australia Post.

Coding Accuracy Support System (CASS) certification for the United States Postal Service.

SendRight certification for New Zealand Post.

Service National de L'Adresse (SNA) certification for La Poste of France.

Software Evaluation and Recognition Program (SERP) certification for Canada Post.

The mapping can also generate a certification report for addresses that you verify in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United States.

Preferred verification level

Specifies the depth of address information that the mapping seeks to verify in the input data. The property works in tandem with the

Minimum verification level

property.

Minimum verification level

Specifies the minimum depth of information that the mapping can accept in an address that it considers valid. The property works in tandem with the

Preferred verification level

property.

You can select one of the following options on the Preferred verification level and Minimum verification level properties:

Full address. Default value on both properties. The mapping attempts to verify all available information.

Premise level. The mapping attempts to verify all information to building or house number level.

Street level. The mapping attempts to verify all information to street or delivery service level.

Locality level. The mapping attempts to verify all information to locality level. The mapping ignores delivery service information. The mapping can also verify postal codes.

Primary locality level. The mapping attempts to verify all information to locality level 1 and ignores more granular or lower-level locality information. The mapping can also verify postal codes.

If you set both levels to Full and the mapping cannot verify an input data value, address verification invalidates the address.
