Disable Address Validation for the US

When you disable address validation, you disable the US-specific programmatic validation rules. You can disable address validation on through the Manage Features by Country or Territory task.

Note: The Manage Geographies task provides predefined rules for validating address structure, format, and values. Disabling address validation doesn't have any impact on these validations.

If you're using the Payroll product extension, never disable this programmatic validation.

For example, suppose you have chosen Human Resources with address validation enabled. During data conversion, you want to temporarily bypass address validation rules to load a batch of worker data. You can achieve this by deselecting the Address Validation check box before loading your data. After loading the batch, if the address validation remains disabled, any new address data you enter later could be potentially invalid. Errors can occur in subsequent processes and reports. As a result, you must reenable address validation and update your existing address data to resolve validation errors.
