Enterprise Tax Module

Parsed Address Elements Returns

Assign GeoTAX Info in Enterprise Designer now offers Parsed Elements as a return data option. The parsed elements output fields contain the individual component parts of a standard street address line, such as unit number, unit type, house number, street name, etc.

Administration Utility Commands

The Administration Utility now includes commands to manage Enterprise Tax Module databases:
  • geotaxdb get—Returns information about an Enterprise Tax Module database.
  • geotaxdb import—Imports an Enterprise Tax Module database property file created by the geotaxdb export command. The geotaxdb import command configures the database resource on the current system.
  • geotaxdb export—Exports all of the Enterprise Tax Module database resource information to a database property file, GeotaxDbResource.txt, at the specified location.
  • geotaxdb list—Displays all the configured Enterprise Tax Module databases and their pool size.
  • geotaxdb delete—Deletes a configured Enterprise Tax Module database.
  • geotaxdb poolsize set—Sets the pool size for a configured Enterprise Tax Module database. The pool size is the maximum number of concurrent requests allowed to a database.

Matching Enhancements

Addresses with PO Box #

Improvements have been made in the handling and matching of PO Box addresses that contain a “#” sign in front of the box number. For example: PO BOX #14.

Addresses with Underscore

Improvements have been made in the handling of input addresses containing underscores. For example: __4750 Walnut St. 80301_.

Improvements in Singleline Address Matching

Prefer Input Street Information over PO Box

Improvements have been made in singleline processing to prefer the input street information over a PO Box. For example:

Input: MARVIN R BECK PT 1108 E PATTERSON/ POB 160 KIRKSVILLE MO 63501
Old match: PO BOX 160
New match:
1108 E PATTERSON ST

Ambiguous Street Names

Improvements have been made in handling of street names that could also be city names in singleline address processing. For example:

Input:  BOX 58 ASHAWAY RI 02804
Previous match:
  58 ASHAWAY RD, 02804
New match:  BOX 58, ASHAWAY RI 02804

Post Office Box or #

Improved singleline matching for PO Boxes when entered as POST OFFICE BOX, or when the number is preceded by #.

Multiple Intersections

Improved handling and reporting of singleline matching of addresses containing multiple intersections when using Master Location Data. For example: 8th & laurel & 9th 21851.

Missing or Out of Range House Numbers

Improved handling of singleline input addresses with missing or out of range house numbers. Matches and non-matches are now returned more accurately.
