You can generate a report that describes the status of the addresses that you submit for validation in certified mode. The report verifies that the address set meets the certification standards that the mail carrier defines.
The Address Validator transformation generates reports for the following standards:
Address Machine Approval System (AMAS)
Australia Post defines the AMAS certification standard.
Coding Accuracy Support System (CASS)
The USPS defines the CASS certification standard.
SendRight
New Zealand Post defines the SendRight certification standard.
Software Evaluation and Recognition Program (SERP)
Canada Post defines the SERP certification standard.
You can use the Address Validator transformation to certify French address records to the National Address Management Service (SNA) certification standard. However, you do not generate a report for SNA address certification in the Address Validator transformation.
When you provide the mail items that meet the certification standards to the mail carrier, you submit the certification report with the address set. The report includes data about the organization. You can enter the data when you configure the Address Validator transformation. The transformation adds the organization data to the report file.
