Assigning a PreciselyID

For each addressable location, PreciselyID processing provides a unique and persistent identifier to reference the address without storing the whole address string. The PreciselyID is further verification an address exists, regardless of DPV matching.

Additionally, to link the PreciselyID to other data (for example, geoenrichment), Precisely has done the complex matching for you. Use the PreciselyID as the gateway to the rest of the Precisely data portfolio. Contact your Sales Representative for more information, based on your specific needs.

To support PreciselyID processing within Global Address Validation, the following changes were made:

  • Assign PreciselyID added to the Global Options panel to enable this feature.
  • PreciselyID is now a return field for all countries in Global Addressing.
  • PreciselyIDFound is a USA-only return field that gives more detail about the returned PreciselyID:
    Value Description
    Y PreciselyID was found for the full address
    D PreciselyID was found for the primary address (secondary information was dropped to find a match).
    N PreciselyID was not found.

Countries with PreciselyID:

AUS (AU7), CAN (CA8) – not PoCAD/SERP data, MLD only, FRA (FRA8), GBR (GB7), and USA
