Process Status Values

The process status values returned describe the result output quality of a call to AddressDoctor. This value is returned by selecting an output field that is of type PARAMETER and has the name “ProcessStatus”.

Value Description
V4 Verified – Input data correct - all (postally relevant) elements were checked and input matched perfectly
V3 Verified – Input data correct on input but some or all elements were standardised or input contains outdated names or exonyms
V2 Verified – Input data correct but some elements could not be verified because of incomplete reference data
V1 Verified – Input data correct but the user standardisation has deteriorated deliverability (wrong element user standardisation – for example, postcode length chosen is too short). Not set by validation.
C4 Corrected – all (postally relevant) elements have been checked
C3 Corrected – but some elements could not be checked
C2 Corrected – but delivery status unclear (lack of reference data)
C1 Corrected – but delivery status unclear because user standardisation was wrong. Not set by validation.
I4 Data could not be corrected completely, but is very likely to be deliverable – single result (e.g. One result found, but too poor for a C status. e.g. HNO is identified as wrong in batch mode.)
I3 Data could not be corrected completely, but is very likely to be deliverable – multiple results (e.g. HNO is wrong, several HNO generated in interactive mode.)
I2 Data could not be corrected, but there is a slim chance that the address is deliverable
I1 Data could not be corrected and is pretty unlikely to be delivered.
