Resultant output data for CASS stage
The CASS™ stage results are written to an output data stage during CASS processing.
The output stage results contain all the input record information. Those records where the address matched successfully to the CASS reference database also contain the footnotes and flags as a result of CASS processing. You can search the results file to identify unqualified addresses and correct where necessary.
