Validate Addresses in a Batch

With Address Validation, you can verify the address information entered in a Constituent Batch, Constituent Update Batch, Constituent Address Update Batch, Revenue Batch, or Enhanced Revenue Batch is correct. Address validation verifies the addresses you enter exist and are entered correctly. When you validate an address, the program updates missing or incomplete information such as Zip codes, standardizes street addresses, and updates the addresses with Coding Accuracy Support System (CASS) certified information.

In Constituent Batch, Constituent Update Batch, and Constituent Address Update Batch, when you use Validate addresses (all rows), the address validation happens for all constituent addresses added or edited in the batch. In Enhanced Revenue Batch, when you use Validate addresses (all rows), the address validation happens for new constituents added to the batch only. If you edit an existing constituent's address in the batch, you must use the Validate button on the Edit constituent screen.

Note: Address Validation provides CASS certification through Satori Software, Inc., an official CASS certification agent. To enable Address Validation, your system administrator must first configure it in Data Tune-Up. For information about how to configure Address Validation, see the Data Tune-up Guide.
