A |
Matched record and a new address has been provided (NCOAlink 18Month
Service code only) New move indicator is provided in Movetype field under B (business),I (individual), or F (family). |
| 00 | No Match (NCOAlink 18 month Service code only) |
| 01 | Found COA: Foreign Move - The input record matched to a business, individual or family type master file record but the new address was outside USPS delivery area. |
| 02 |
Found COA: Moved Left No Address (MLNA) - The input record matched to a business, individual or family type master file record and the new address was not provided to USPS. |
| 03 |
Found COA: Box Closed No Order (BCNO) - The Input record matched to a business, individual or family type master file record which contains an old address of PO BOX that has been closed without a forwarding address provided. |
| 04 |
Cannot match COA: Street Address with Secondary - In the STANDARD mode utilizing Family matching logic the input record matched to a family record type on the master file with an old address that contained secondary information which obtained a ZIP+4 street level match. The input record does not contain secondary information. This address match situation requires individual name matching logic to obtain a match and individual names do not match. |
| 05 |
Found COA:
New 11-digit DPBC is Ambiguous - The input record matched to a business,
individual or family type master file record. The new address on the
master file record could not be converted to a deliverable address
because the DPBC represents more than one delivery point. |
| 06 |
Cannot Match
COA: Conflicting Directions: Middle Name Related -There is more than one
COA (individual or family type) record for the match algorithm and the
middle names or initials on the COAs are different. Therefore, a single
match result could not be determined. |
| 07 |
Cannot Match COA: Conflicting Directions: Gender Related -There is more than one COA (individual or family type) record for the match algorithm and the genders of the names on the COAs are different. Therefore, a single match result could not be determined. |
| 08 |
Cannot Match COA: Other Conflicting
Instructions - The input record matched to two master file (business,
individual or family type) records. The two records in the master file
were compared and due to differences in the new addresses, a match could
not be made. |
| 09 |
Cannot Match COA: High-rise Default - The
input record matched to a family record on the master file from a High-
rise address ZIP+4 coded to the building default. This address match
situation requires individual name matching logic to obtain a match and
individual names do not match. |
| 10 |
Cannot Match COA: Rural Default - The
input record matched to a family record on the master file from a Rural
Route or Highway Contract Route address ZIP+4 coded to the route
default. This address situation requires individual name matching logic
to obtain a match and individual names do not match. |
| 11 |
Cannot Match COA: Individual Match: Insufficient COA Name for Match - There is a master file (individual or family type) record with the same surname and address but there is insufficient name information on the master file record to produce a match using individual matching logic. |
| 12 |
Cannot Match COA: Middle Name Test Failed
- The input record matched to an individual or family record on the
master file with the same address and surname. However, a match cannot
be made because the input name contains a conflict with the middle name
or initials on the master file record. |
| 13 |
Cannot Match COA: Gender Test Failed - The input record matched to a master file (individual or family type) record. A match cannot be made because the gender of the name on the input record conflicts with the gender of the name on the master file record. |
| 14 |
Found COA: New Address Would Not Convert
at Run Time - The input record matched to a master file (business,
individual or family type) record. The new address could not be
converted to a deliverable address. |
| 15 |
Cannot Match COA: Individual Name Insufficient - There is a master file record with the same address and surname. A match cannot be made because the input record does not contain a first name or contains initials only. |
| 16 |
Cannot Match COA: Secondary Number Discrepancy - The input record matched to a street level individual or family type record. However, a match is prohibited based on I of the following reasons: 1) There is conflicting secondary information on the input and master file record; 2) the input record contained secondary information and matched to a family record that does not contain secondary information. In item 2, this address match situation requires individual name matching logic to obtain a COA match and individual names do not match. |
| 17 |
Cannot Match COA: Other Insufficient Name
- The input record matched to an individual or family master file
record. The input name is different or not sufficient enough to produce
a match. |
| 18 |
Cannot Match COA: General Delivery - The input record matched to a family record on the master file from a General Delivery address. This address situation requires individual name matching logic to obtain a match and individual names do not match. |
| 19 |
Found COA: New Address not ZIP + 4 coded, New address primary number not DPV confirmable or Temporary Change Of Address - There is a change of address on file but the new address cannot be ZIP + 4 coded and therefore there is no 11-digit DPBC to store or return, the new address primary number cannot be confirmed on DPV or the new address is temporary. |
| 20 |
Cannot Match COA: Conflicting Directions
after re-chaining - Multiple master file records were potential matches
for the input record. The master file records contained different new
addresses and a single match result could not be determined. |
| 66 |
Daily Delete - The input record matched to
a business, individual or family type master file record with an old
address that is present in the daily delete file. The presence of an
address in the daily delete file means that a COA with this address is
pending deletion from the master file and that no mail may be forwarded
from this address. |
| 91 | Found COA : Secondary Number dropped
from COA The input record matched to a master file record. The master file record had a secondary number and the input address did not. A new address was provided. |
| 92 | Found COA : Secondary Number Dropped from input address The input record matched to a master file record, but the input address had a secondary number and the master file record did not. The record is a ZIP + 4® street level match. A new address was provided. |
