Address Validator Port Reference

Address Validator Port Reference

Coding Accuracy Support System Status

Coding Accuracy Support System Status

Output port that indicates whether an output address record contains the types of data required by the United States Postal Service (USPS) Coding Accuracy Support System (CASS).
A United States address may not contain all data required for CASS certification, even if the address is correct. When you validate United States addresses with the Address Validator transformation, the validation process adds data elements to the address records so that they meet the CASS standard.
To confirm the CASS status of the address data, configure the Address Validator transformation in certified mode.

Coding Accuracy Support System Status Usage

Select Coding Accuracy Support System Status to verify that output address records contain all data required for address validation to the CASS standard. If the addresses you submit to the USPS meet the CASS standard, you can qualify for mail discount.
The Coding Accuracy Support System Status value indicates whether an address can be validated to the CASS standard. It does not indicate the quality or deliverability of the address. However, if address validation cannot provide all CASS elements for an address, the address is not correct to ZIP+4 Code level.
