Additional Fields for CASS

For CASS, the following fields are available in addition to the standard output fields supported for address cleansing.

As with all output fields, if a value isn't presented, the respective field may not be returned.


Field name	Description
`AutoZoneIndicator`	Indicates if carrier route sort rates apply to the location's postal address.
`CarrierRoute`	The Carrier route code assigned to a mail delivery or collection route within a 5-digit ZIP Code.
`CMRAIndicator`	Indicates if the location's address is associated with a Commercial Mail Receiving Agency (CMRA), more commonly referred to as a maildrop.

`eLOTCode`	Indicates the first occurrence of delivery made to the add-on range within the carrier route. This is used with the Enhanced Line of Travel (eLOT) service that enables mailers to earn lower rates by sorting based on delivery sequence.
`eLOTNumber`	Indicates the approximate delivery order within the sequence number. Used with Enhanced Line of Travel (eLOT) service that enables mailers to earn lower rates by sorting based on delivery sequence.
`EWSFlag`	Indicates whether an address matched a record in the EWS (Early Warning System) file for newer addresses (resulting in a ZIP+4 no match).
`FalsePositiveIndicator`	Indicates whether a mailing list is being generated or created during validation, as creating a mailing list through DPV certification is disallowed by the USPS.
