Record Type Matching Rules
When matching against an auxiliary file, Geocode US Address uses the following rules:
Street record match
- The input house number must fall within or be equal to the low and high house number values of the auxiliary record.
- The input house number must agree with the parity of the auxiliary record.
- The input ZIP Code must exactly match the ZIP Code of the auxiliary record.
Landmark record match
- The input data must contain a ZIP Code and address line, and the values must exactly match the values on the auxiliary record.
- The input address cannot have any other data, such as a house number, unit number, or Private Mail Box (PMB).
Note: Geocode US Address only matches the ZIP Code against the auxiliary file. Geocode US Address does not verify that the ZIP Code of the input address record is correct for the city and state. Validate this information in your input lists before processing against the auxiliary file.
