Configuring Universal Address Paige Freeman May 15, 2023 15:44 Updated The system passes the following parameters to the Spectrum server while validating the address: AddressLine1, AddressLine2, AddressLine3, AddressLine4, City, State, PostalCode, and Country. You must have access to the Settings.ApplicationSettings security application to access this page. To configure and verify the Universal Addressing interface: From the Settings section of the left navigation menu, select Application Settings. From the Application Settings page, select Configure Universal Address from the Address Validation > Spectrum Address Validation section.The Configure Universal Address page displays, as shown below. Select the edit pencil in the grid to edit the value of the corresponding Vantiv parameter.Please see the table below for descriptions of the available parameters. Default values for all the parameters are already present. Hover the mouse over the Comments column to view the comments in detail. The comments provide a description of each parameter and specify acceptable values for certain parameters. Parameter Definition ACCOUNT_ID This parameter defines the server account ID for accessing the Spectrum Platform Universal Address service. ACCOUNT_PASSWORD This parameter defines the server account password foraccessing the Spectrum Platform Universal Address service. CONNECTION_TIMEOUT This parameter defines the server connection timeout, in milliseconds. CONNECTION_TYPE This parameter defines the server connection type. Currently supported values by Spectrum Platform are: HTTP RMI HOST This parameter defines the server host name or IP address where the Universal Address is installed. OUTPUTCASING This parameter defines the validated address case. Valid options include: M – Mixed case (default) U – Upper Case PATH This parameter defines the server path location for the Universal Address. PORT This parameter defines the server port number where the Universal Address is installed. USA_DIRECTIONAL_MATCH_STRICTNESS This one-character code parameter defines the directional/suffix match. This parameter is for United States addresses only. Valid options include: E – the input directional/suffix must match the database exactly T – the matching algorithm is tight M – the matching algorithm is medium (default) L – the matching algorithm is loose The only option supported by Spectrum Platform is M. USA_DPV_SUCCESSFUL_STATUS_CONDITION This parameter defines the match condition where a DPV result does not cause a record to fail. This parameter is for United States addresses only. Valid options include: F – Full match P – Partial match A – Always (default) Requires PERFORMDPV set to Yes (Y). USA_FIRM_MATCH_STRICTNESS This one-character code parameter defines the Firm name match. This parameter is for United States addresses only. Valid options include: E – the input directional/suffix must match the database exactly T – the matching algorithm is tight M – the matching algorithm is medium (default) L – the matching algorithm is loose. The only option supported by Spectrum Platform is M. USA_PERFORMDPV This parameter defines the delivery point validation. This parameter is for United States addresses only as specified by USPS, such as a suite or room number. Valid options include: N – do not perform delivery point validation Y – perform delivery point validation Delivery point validation can be performed only if the delivery point database (UNC DPV Subscription) is installed. USA_PERFORMESM This parameter defines enhanced street matching. This parameter is for United States addresses only. Valid options include: N – do not perform enhanced street matching Y – perform enhanced street matching USA_PERFORMEWS This parameter defines the Early Warning System (EWS) match. This parameter is for United States addresses only. Valid options include: N – do not perform match to EWS (default) Y – perform EWS match If this parameter is set to Y, a separate EWS database should be installed. USA_PERFORMRDI This parameter defines the Residential Delivery Indicator (RDI) processing. This parameter is for United States addresses only. Valid options include: N – do not perform RDI processing (default) Y – perform RDI processing If this parameter is set to Y, a separate RDI database should be installed. USA_STREET_MATCH_STRICTNESS This one-character code parameter defines the street name match. This parameter is for United States addresses only. Valid options include: E – the input street name must match the database exactly T – the matching algorithm is tight M – the matching algorithm is medium (default) L – the matching algorithm is loose The only option supported by Spectrum Platform is M.
