AccuZIP6 Update Notes Archive

 

Update 5.07.100 (Build 1): October 9, 2017

- Resolved issue with legacy PAF files not recognizing there was missing information prior to creating file for NCOALink 48-month processing

- Resolved padding file for NCOALink processing so there are at least 100 unique named and 100 unique addresses to get through NCOALink 48-month processing

- Resolved duplicate mail piece issues when sorting for Nonmachineable Letter size mail

- PresortCOM.dll (v3.0.6490.27893)


Update 5.07.99 (Build 6): October 6, 2017

- Fixes issue that causes NCOALink 48 Month Processing to not complete and leave NCOA Monitor


Update 5.07.99 (Build 4): September 15, 2017

- AccuAddress.dll (2.0.4.248)
- Support for Single Trailing Alpha on Primary Number. Example: 11104E ASCOT CIR, FREDERICKSBURG VA 22407
- DPV_ = SN NN vs. YN NN
When a primary number is numeric with a Single Trailing Alpha Exception (no secondary present on input) and it does not DPV confirm as returned from the ZIP + 4 match, the Single Trailing Alpha should be dropped for DPV confirmation. If the number then DPV confirms, software must return an “S” for DPV confirmation. “S” indicates that the secondary information or a trailing alpha was dropped to make a match to DPV. The returned primary number must be the one returned from the ZIP + 4 match (which includes the trailing alpha).

- R777 Definition/Clarification
New Addrcode.dbf to support the R7 footnote in dpvnotes_. Physical addresses that are assigned to a phantom route of R777 are not eligible for street delivery.
Example: 310 W HONEOYE ST, SHINGLEHOUSE PA 16748
CRRT = R777, DPVNOTES_ = AABBR7
Flagged as a no-stat record. The ZIP + 4 cannot be returned by CASS software. Cannot be counted on the 3553 as a ZIP + 4 coded record. The ZIP + 4 should not be printed on the mailpiece. CASS software can be configurable to return a DPV Return Code of “N” when matched to an R777 record, but the default setting must be configured to return a Return Code of “Y” when matched to an R777 record. A new DPV Footnote of “R7” was created to identify these records. This footnote must be returned when the address matches a carrier route of R777 to indicate that the address is not expected to be delivered by the Postal Service.
