Match Codes
MapMarker returns Match Codes that indicate the parts of the address were matched (or what
address parts were changed to achieve the match). If no match was made, the Match Code begins
with E and the remaining digits indicate why the address did not match.

Code Description
Ahh Same as Shh, but indicates match to an alias name record or
an alternate record.

based on the input ZIP Code or city.
D00 Matched to a small town with P.O. Box or General Delivery only.
Hhh House number was changed.
Jhh Matched to a User Dictionary.
Qhh Matched to USPS range records with unique ZIP Codes. CASS
rules prohibit altering an input ZIP if it matches a unique ZIP
Code value.
Rhh Matched to a ranged address.
Shh Matched to USPS data. This is considered the best address
match, because it matched directly against the USPS list of
addresses. S is returned for a small number of addresses when
the matched address has a blank ZIP + 4.
