CONTACT ADDRESS REVIEW · Workflow idea

Check a mailing address before it is used.

When a new contact is added, check whether the submitted mailing address appears complete and deliverable. Return the result and any suggested correction to the contact owner, who can verify the details with the person before changing a record or preparing a mailing.

01 / The starting point

A clear request.
A useful direction.

A newly created contact record with an address collected for an approved business purpose

“Check the mailing address, report the outcome and any suggested correction, and leave record changes and mailing decisions for a person to confirm.”
An example request · Make it specific to your team.

02 / The work

5 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Helps contact owners catch incomplete or potentially undeliverable addresses while there is time to confirm the details with the person.

  1. Review the new contact and address

    Confirm the address was collected for an appropriate purpose and identify the owner responsible for the record.

  2. Check for missing or inconsistent details

    Look for incomplete street, locality, region, or postal information and route ambiguous entries to a person.

  3. Record the delivery finding

    Show whether the address appears deliverable and retain any suggested correction as unconfirmed information.

  4. Verify proposed corrections

    Have the contact owner compare suggestions with a trusted source or confirm the intended address with the person.

  5. Approve the record change or mailing

    Require a teammate to approve the exact address update, recipient, and purpose before the record changes or physical mail is prepared.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

A contact-linked address check with its status and suggested details available for review before the record is changed or mail is sent.

The handoff

A contact-linked address check with its status and suggested details available for review before the record is changed or mail is sent.

Keep in mind

An address check can be uncertain or suggest details that belong to someone else. Use contact information only for the stated purpose, have a person verify every proposed change with a reliable source or the contact, and confirm the final recipient and address before mailing.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Choose eligible contacts and address fields

Define which newly created contacts are in scope and use only the address details needed for the check.

Set rules for uncertain results

Decide how incomplete addresses and suggested corrections are displayed and ensure suggestions remain unconfirmed.

Assign contact owners and mailing approvers

Name who can verify an address, approve a record change, and authorize a recipient for physical mail.

Test partial and ambiguous addresses

Check complete, incomplete, and uncertain examples to confirm that submitted details are never silently replaced.
