Usage notes

When a PCA Location or PCA Healthcare Service resource containing the pca-postal-address extension is created or updated by a publishing system, the line elements are processed by PCA according to the following rules:

If the address contains a GNAF/DPID identifier:

  • If the PCA service determines that the first line element includes qualifying address details that do not form a part of the GNAF/PAF address (for example shop, suite, or building name):
    • The first line element represents the qualifying address details.
    • The second line element represents the first line of the non-locality/state/postcode portion of the GNAF/PAF address.
    • The third line element (if present) represents the second line of the non-locality/state/postcode portion of the GNAF/PAF address. If the GNAF/PAF address does not have a unit/level/etc number, this element will not be present.
  • If the PCA service determines that the first line element does not include qualifying address details that do not form a part of the GNAF/PAF address (for example shop, suite, or building name):
    • The first line element represents the first line of the non-locality/state/postcode portion of the GNAF/PAF address.
    • The second line element (if present) represents the second line of the non-locality/state/postcode portion of the GNAF/PAF address. If the GNAF/PAF address does not have a unit/level/etc number, this element will not be present.

If the address does not contain a GNAF/DPID identifier:

  • If there are three address.line elements present:
    • The first line element represents the qualifying address details as provided by the publisher.
    • The second line element represents the first line of the address as provided by the publisher.
    • The third line element contains the second line of the address as provided by the publisher.
  • If there are less than three address.line elements present:
    • The first line element represents the first line of the address as provided by the publisher.
    • The second line element (if present) represents the second line of the address as provided by the publisher.

When a PCA Location or PCA Healthcare Service resource containing the pca-postal-address extension is retrieved by a publishing or subscribing system, the line elements are populated by PCA according to the following rules.

Note: when a PCA Organization is retrieved by a publishing or subscribing system, the line elements for address (if present) are populated by PCA using these same rules.

If the address contains a GNAF/DPID identifier:

  • If the publisher provided address details that qualify, but do not form a part of, the GNAF/PAF address (for example shop, suite, or building name):
    • The first line element contains the qualifying address details.
    • The second line element contains the first line of the non-locality/state/postcode portion of the GNAF/PAF address.
    • The third line element (if present) contains the second line of the non-locality/state/postcode portion of the GNAF/PAF address. If the GNAF/PAF address does not have a unit/level/etc number, this element will not be present.
  • If the publisher did not provide address details that qualify, but do not form a part of, the GNAF/PAF address:
    • The first line element contains the first line of the non-locality/state/postcode portion of the GNAF/PAF address.
    • The second line element (if present) contains the second line of the non-locality/state/postcode portion of the GNAF/PAF address. If the GNAF/PAF address does not have a unit/level/etc number, this element will not be present.

If the address does not contain a GNAF/DPID identifier:

  • If there are three address.line elements present:
    • The first line element contains the qualifying address details as provided by the publisher.
    • The second line element contains the first line of the address as provided by the publisher.
    • The third line element contains the second line of the address as provided by the publisher.
  • If there are less than three address.line elements present:
    • The first line element contains the first line of the address as provided by the publisher.
    • The second line element (if present) contains the second line of the address as provided by the publisher.
