%%PBSS_NOT_USED

The last line number of your input address that EngageOne™ Enrichment (not Finalist) has determined to be before any address information, that is, the first 'x’ lines of your address "not used" to code the address. This value is constructed as follows: take the smallest non-zero value of the %%ADDRSCAN_INDEX block of variables, then subtract 1 from that value. However, if Finalist coded the address to a firm, then %%PBSS_NOT_USED will reflect that any lines deemed to be a firm by ADDRSCAN were "used" to code the address.

For example:
  • L1 Attn: Fred Smith
  • L2 C/O Customer Service
  • L3 ABC Shipping Inc.
  • L4 123 Main St.
  • L5 Anytown, WI 12345
  • L6 URGENT
If the above address codes to the specified firm, %%PBSS_NOT_USED will be 2 to reflect that neither line 1 nor line 2 were used to code the address. However, if the address does not code to the specified firm, then %%PBSS_NOT_USED will be 3 to indicate that none of lines 1, 2 or 3 were used to code the address. You may use the %%ADDRSCAN_INDEX block of variables to determine which lines were used by ADDRSCAN.
