Check the operation(s) you want to perform.

The following operations are available:

Check
Check is always performed as a default. The Check action determines whether the data within a submitted record is valid, e.g. whether or not a given postal code contains the given city. It can also make limited corrections and appends to the data. Check looks at each data point separately, the inputs you put in for email don't affect what Check does with an address. Check returns results codes that describe which inputs were invalid, valid, or corrected. It also returns the input data after it has been corrected and added.
Verify
The Verify action allows you to determine whether the input data points are associated with each other. By default Listware will use the input Address as the centric, or pivot piece of data. If no address is used as input, Listware will use phone and email in that order as the centric piece of data.
For example, Listware will tell you whether the name, phone, and email on that record coincide with that address in our database.
Verify only returns the results column with results codes describing what it found.
