Element Input Status

Output port that indicates the similarities between the input address data and the address reference data.

Element Input Status Usage

To view detailed information about the validity of an input address, select Element Input Status. Review the data on the Element Input Status port to identify any address data element that does not match the reference data.

To read the output codes on the Element Input Status port, you must understand the types of address information that the code values refer to. For information about the type of address information that each character in the code represents, see the Element Status Ports Overview.

Element Input Status contains status information about input address records. To review status information about output address records, use the Element Result Status port.

Port Location

The following table provides the location and default precision of the Element Input Status port:

Port Type	Port Group	Template Model	Precision
Output	Status Info	Basic	30

Element Input Status Output Codes

The Element Input Status value is a 20-character string in which each character represents a different type of address information. The meanings of the Element Input Status values depend on the operational mode of the Address Validator transformation.

The following table describes the codes that port can return on each position for address validation:

Code	Description
0	The input address contains no data at the current position.
1	The reference data does not contain the data at the current position.
2	Cannot check the data because the reference data is missing.
3	The data at the current position is incorrect. The reference database suggests that the number or delivery service value is outside the range that the reference data expects. In batch and certified modes, the transformation passes the input data at the current position uncorrected as output.
4	The data at the current position matches the reference data but contains errors.
5	The data at the current position matches the reference data, but the transformation corrected or standardized the data.
6	The data at the current position matches the reference data without any error.

The following table describes the codes that port can return on each position for address parsing:

Code	Description
0	The input address contains no data at the current position.
1	The transformation moved the element at the current position to another position in the output address.
2	The element at the current position matched the reference data value, but the transformation normalized the element in the output address.
3	The data at the current position is correct.
