ConnectRight Mailer

Enrichment can call ConnectRight Mailer (CRM) using ConnectRight Mailer’s Hot Folder Monitor. For Enrichment to call ConnectRight Mailer, you must use <CASSTYPE> C and <PRETYPE> C.

The ConnectRight Mailer Import step must have a field layout beginning with:

  • 16 bytes for an unmapped index
  • 70 bytes for address line 1
  • 70 bytes for address line 2
  • 70 bytes for a City/State/Zip line
  • 32 bytes for an Urbanization line

And it must end with a 2 byte field for the Carriage Return and Line Feed character

The ConnectRight Mailer Export step must have a field layout beginning with:

  • 16 bytes for the unmapped index
  • 70 bytes for address line 1
  • 70 bytes for address line 2
  • 43 bytes for the combined City/State/Zip line

You can include additional fields in either the Import or Export step.

<CRMHOTFOLDER> The <CRMHOTFOLDER> tag must be included in the <CASS> group, describing where the CRM job will look for the input file.
<FILE> In the <PRESORT> group, the <FILE> tag must be the CRM project name followed by .txt.

For example:

<FILE> crmin.txt
<SORTPART> The first <SORTPART> tag must be:

<SORTPART> %%DOCINDEX 16 R ' '

The second <SORTPART> tag must be: <SORTPART> %%SCAN_RESULTS 240 R ' '
<OUTFILE1> The <OUTFILE1> tag must point to the file name, excluding the path, of the Export step in ConnectRight Mailer, followed by the record length that ConnectRight Mailer will generate. Unless additional fields are included, the record length will be 201.

For example:

<OUTFILE1> crmout.txt 201
<INDEXCOL> The <INDEXCOL> tag must be:

<INDEXCOL> 1 16

By default, address lines will be replaced with the results from ConnectRight Mailer. If additional fields are included in the output, the CRM output record can be processed in the rule file. The system variable %%PRESORT_RECORD will contain the entire record from ConnectRight Mailer.
