   • Convert address to USPS standard — By default, this option is enabled to automatically standardize your addresses with USPS data. Only disable this if your want to manually standardize your addresses, or your addresses need to be different from the USPS standard.
   • Assume the City, State, and Zip of a Comparable is the same as the subject if an exact match is found. — Mark this option to allow TOTAL to check USPS for a standardized address that matches the comp's street address and the subject's city, ctate and Zip. If one is found TOTAL will automatically place them into the report. When disabled, you must enter the city, state and Zip manually.
   • Update ZIP code to match USPS reported ZIP code — This options is always enabled if Convert address to USPS standard is enabled. This option automatically checks the ZIP code you entered against the ZIP code USPS has on record and updates it if necessary.
   • Append Zip+4 — enable this to append the extended 4‑digit code to the ZIP code and provide more specific location information.
   • Make all alphabetical characters uppercase — Mark this option if you want TOTAL to automatically capitalize all the letters in your address, city, and state.
