CASS Processing - Specifying Address Information

Addresses are special variables used by Enrichment to perform CASS™ processing. There are two ways to identify an address:

• The Input group <ADDRESSBLOCK> tag
• The Address tag group within the Input group.

Because an address is associated with a specific input stream, these tags go within the Input tag group. Both methods are limited to addresses of up to six lines.

The Input group <ADDRESSBLOCK> tag is the easiest way to identify addresses. However, you can only use it if:

• The address lines are always in the same position on the printed page
• Each address line is always located one line or record below the preceding address line, in the same location on the record
• The address is on the first page of the document.

If the address location moves on the page or if each address line is not located within the print stream one below the other (which is common in composed AFPDS or AFP line data), then you must use the Address tag group. For information about using the Address tag group, see the Enrichment Language Reference Guide.
