Reporting DPV False-Positive Violations

Spectrumâ„¢ Technology Platform indicates a false-positive match via messages in the server log.

During batch processing, if you encounter a false positive record the job will continue. After the job completes you will not be able to run any other jobs using DPV because your DPV key is disabled. When a DPV false positive record violation occurs, the following text is displayed in the Execution History:

DPV Seed Record Violation. Seed Code S<ZIP, ZIP+4, Address, Unit>

You can report the violation and obtain a restart key by following these steps.

  1. In your browser, go to http://<yourserver>:<port>/<product code>/dpv.jsp. For example, http://localhost:8080/unc/dpv.jsp for the Universal Addressing Module and http://localhost:8080/geostan/dpv.jsp for the Enterprise Geocoding Module.
  2. Enter the mailer's information into each field. The number in parentheses after each field name indicates the maximum length of the field.
