Understanding Address Verification Code
When the location is cleansed, a corresponding Address Verification Code (AVC) and Verification Status is added.
When a location is either added, updated, or merged within Reltio, the key address attributes are updated.

Verification Status
V: Verified
- Indicates that there was a complete match between the input data and a single record from the available reference data.P: Partially Verified
- Indicates that there was a partial match between the input data and a single record from the available reference data.U: Unverified
- Unable to verify; the output fields contain input data.A: Ambiguous
- Indicates that there are more than one close reference data match.C: Conflict
- Indicates that there are more than one close reference data matches with conflicting values.R: Reverted
- Indicates that the record did not meet the specified minimum acceptable level. The output fields contain input data.Note: Any location that has AVC starting with the characterP/A
, havingPost verification status >= 4
(premise or building level delivery), andmatch score >=90
, is considered Verified.

Match Score
The match score indicates if the input data has changed during the verification process in order to achieve the post-processed verification match level. 100% indicates that no changes are made. Only data changes measured by the match score, data additions are not.
