 QAS Batch

QAS Batch allows users to clean and enhance their existing address database as well as maintaining the validity of those records over time.

QAS Batch will check the accuracy of existing address records against Australia Post’s Postal Address File (PAF). Batch initially runs through a database, correcting and verifying existing postcodes and adding any missing ones.

If the postcode is correct, but parts of the address are missing or invalid, QAS Batch will add or correct these. Spelling or layout errors will be automatically corrected.

Inclusive features:

• Multiple User Interactive Functionality - Any address that cannot be matched against the PAF in the automatic batch run can then be re-processed individually by multiple users at any one time.  The interactive stage allows you to utilise a number of different searching techniques and advanced search features in order to find the correct address.
• Extensive Reporting - After addresses are cleaned, a report is auto-generated, outlining how successful Batch has been in cleaning and matching addresses against the PAF record.  The report provides an easy way to interpret results using simple match icons and codes to outline what was changed in each address.
• Configuration Wizard - If you are a novice user, the wizard will guide you through the configuration, automatic and interactive processes, as well as the final reporting stage.  Furthermore, Batch will return additional useful information such as: 
                  * Delivery Point Identifiers (DPIDs)
                  * Extended barcodes
                  * Barcode Sort Plans (BSPs)
