Resource reduction in address validation

An apparatus for reducing an amount of resources required for address validation comprising:

• a computer system connected to a network, a graphical user interface, a processor unit, and a payroll database having a tax information table;
• computer program instructions stored in a computer-readable storage media and configured to cause the processor unit to configure a tax information table in a payroll database to have an authorization column indicating whether an employee having data in a row of the tax information table has authorized release of data in the row;
• to receive a validation request for at least one validated address entered in one or more request fields in a graphical user interface connected to the processor unit;
• to search only rows having an indication of authorization in the authorization column of the tax information table;
• and, responsive to finding the at least one validated addresses in the tax information table, to display a current address in one or more response fields of the graphical user interface as the at least one validated address;
• computer program instructions stored in a computer-readable storage media and configured to cause the processor unit to configure the tax information table to have a rapid response number column;
• computer program instructions stored in the computer-readable storage media and configured to cause the processor unit to calculate for each row having the indication of authorization in the authorization column of the rapid response number column, a rapid response number;
• and
• computer program instructions stored in the computer-readable storage media and configured to cause the processor unit to populate, for each row having the indication of authorization in the authorization column, the rapid response number column with a corresponding rapid response number.

A computer program product for reducing an amount of resources required for address validation comprising a non-transitory computer-readable storage media storing computer instructions therein, the computer program instructions, upon execution by a computing system, causing the computing system to perform steps comprising:

• configuring a tax information table in a payroll database to have an authorization column indicating whether an employee having data in a row of the tax information table has authorized release of data in the row;
• receiving a validation request for at least one validated address entered in one or more request fields in a graphical user interface connected to the processor unit;
• searching only rows having an indication of authorization in the authorization column of the tax information table;
• responsive to finding the at least one validated addresses in the tax information table, displaying a current address in one or more response fields of the graphical user interface as the at least one validated address;
• configuring the tax information table to have a rapid response number column;
• calculating for each row having an indication of authorization in the authorization column of the rapid response number column, a rapid response number;
• and
• populating, for each row having the indication of authorization in the authorization column, the rapid response number column with a corresponding rapid response number.
