The QAS for iMIS window enables you to manually verify an address against a QAS country address database. This window appears only when the address cannot be automatically identified with a single match when you click the button.
Used for
From any module that displays an address, click Verify Address
Mode
Specifies the search mode for address matching.
Database
Specifies the country address database in which to search for matching addresses.
Enter [address type]
Specifies the full or partial address for which QAS should search. The [address type] changes dynamically to indicate the type of address currently being searched. If the Mode is set to Single line, you must click to perform the search. If the Mode is set to Typedown, QAS performs a running search with each character that you enter in this field.
Select
Searches the specified Database for matches to the full or partial address specified in the Enter [address type] field.
Search status line
(read-only) Displays the number of matches found for the full or partial address specified in the Enter [address type] field.
No auto-verify
(Customer Management module only) Flags the full or partial address specified in the Enter [address type] field to be excluded from future address verification, which prevents iMIS from continually prompting you to manually verify the address when it fails automatic verification every time you work with the flagged address in the Manage customers window. This feature is useful when one of the alternate addresses for a customer are located in a country for which you do not have a QAS country address database, or for when you must store an unusual address or an address that is not yet in any of your QAS country address databases.
The flagged address will not be verified even when you subsequently click the Verify Address button. However, the flagged address will be verified if you change any information in the 6 fields associated with the flagged address.
Results area
Performs two different functions depending on whether you are searching for matching addresses or confirming a matched address.
For example, if you have entered Westmi in the Enter [address type] field, this area lists potential matches that include values such as: + Westmill, + West Milton, + Westminster, and so on. The plus sign prefix indicates that there are more potential matches under each of those place names. To refine your typedown search to include only addresses in Westminster, you would double-click the + Westminster item in the list.
New
Clears the results area and the Enter [address type] field, enabling you to start a new search.
Skip
Cancels verification of the current address in the iMIS module.
Accept
Confirms the address displayed in the results area and updates the current address in the iMIS module accordingly.
Cancel
Rejects the address displayed in the results area and redisplays the list of potential matches.
