FAQs

 

How does the postal verification with post for mySAP™ Business Suite differ from "normal" table look-ups?

  • Automatic validation and correction of all postal address elements.
  • The checking is error-tolerant, so that many errors are corrected automatically, i.e. without user interaction.
  • Assignment of the correct postcode based on street, house number or PO box information.
  • Display of the most probable alternatives in the case of ambiguity.
 
 

How does postal address verification with post for mySAP™ Business Suite differ from other postal verification systems?

  • National program versions are available for the most important European countries as well as Canada and the USA.
  • Wherever possible, Uniserv products have been certified by the national postal authorities.
  • A check by street and house number over the entire country is possible to a high degree in all countries.

How does the address retrieval system mail for mySAP™ Business Suite differ from the standard search with "wildcards" available in mySAP™ Business Suite?

  • The results are generated much faster. Even with databases containing several million addresses, the response time is usually less than one second.
  • Searches made with mail for mySAP™ Business Suite are error-tolerant even without wildcards. This is important to mention, since entering wildcards presumes that the user suspects where there could be a deviation!
  • The search can be executed automatically without user action for new entries and changes. As a result, the creation of duplicates is prevented to the largest possible extent without intensive searching by the user.
  • The results are generated according to the degree of compliance.

  • Each type of word, whether it is e.g. the name or house number, can be specifically weighted in the parametrization.
