Express Entry:Best Practices

Abbreviations

Abbreviations are used for predirectionals, such as ‘NW 5th Street’. The system will not produce a match if the user types in ‘North West.’

Allwords Search

Remember that when using the allwords search in CompleteAddress, matching city names may come up first in the list (the first user-entered search term will not necessarily match the street name first).

Sample Code Fields

In the sample code, all that is needed to access the fields that are populated by the service is the field name. Once the data entry user selects a choice from the listbox, the fields are ready to access.

User Address Search

The data entry user can ‘hunt’ for an address using backspace and entering different characters in the search box. The service is fast enough to support this searching feature.

Tab Stops

The sample code tab stops are set so that the user can use the keyboard without the mouse to use the service.
