PostCoder Batch is an address cleaning and validation software product. It uses our advanced address matching engine with
PAF® data from Royal Mail to identify which records in your customer databases are postally correct. The addresses that
are not postally correct can then be amended automatically and updated to your database. Alternatively you can choose to
show the suggested changes in a file and edit any as required before adding them back. PostCoder Batch will also
de-duplicate entries. This address management software offers various input and output address formats, configurable
performance options and automation levels. A simple addressing tool for batch cleaning.
Your customers will be impressed Holding accurate addresses on your customer database will help ensure fast and efficient delivery of mail and goods to your customers.
PostCoder Pro included free PostCoder Batch comes with a copy of our top level PostCoder® desktop software included to help keep your addresses up to date on an ongoing basis. Pick up a full address from just typing in a Postcode, select the house name/number with one click, then send the address straight into your database. Fast and efficient address collection!
Avoid mailing the same customer multiple times With the deduplication available in the Windows version of PostCoder Batch you can remove any additional copies of addresses on your database, ensuring that all your customer are only contacted once when you send out mailings.
No data preparation is required PostCoder® will work with addresses from your address database exactly as they are. It will allow for both missing and unnecessary address elements, spelling errors, address lines run together and incorrect or missing Postcodes.
Your data will be reliable Using PostCoder Batch, which matches your address database against Royal Mail's PAF® (Postcode Address File) data at premise level, will ensure that the addresses on your customer database remain Postally correct. We will update your data every quarter as standard, or more frequently if required.
Your data will be consistent PostCoder Batch allows YOU to choose how you want to format your database, which fields you require and which address elements go in them. You can clean multiple databases using the same formatting option and you will have cross-company consistency, which allows easy sharing, merging and analysis of data.
