The Software Evaluation and Recognition Program (SERP) is a Canada Post standards mechanism that certifies the completeness and accuracy of an address. When you validate addresses with the Address Validator transformation, the validation process uses Canadian reference data to enhance or complete an address, so that a SERP-certified address is both complete and accurate to Canada Post standards.

The Software Evaluation And Recognition Program Status value indicates if the address is eligible for validation to the SERP standard. It does not indicate the quality or deliverability of the address.
