Specify an alternate name (maximum 28 characters) for finding this address. Search Name defaults from the value specified for the business relation. It cannot be modified for the headoffice type.

The name is useful since some address types in the business relation may operate under their own name. For example, a ship-to address for this business relation may have a unique name.

Choose an address type from the drop-down list. This field is mandatory.

A set of address types is supplied with the system. You can create new address types using Address Type Create. See System Address Types for a list of system-supplied address types.

For each business relation, you must create an address with the headoffice address type. Other types of business relation addresses can be created as needed. However, you cannot create any other types until you have created the headoffice address.

It is common for affiliated addresses to operate under different names. For example, a customer ship-to address may have a name that is distinct from the customer address.

The only address types that can be created directly in the business relation are headoffice, dock, reminder, and remittance; you cannot create or delete ship-to and end-user addresses. You must use the Customer Ship-To and End User functions. This prevents ship-to and end-user addresses from being created that are not linked to customer ship-to and end-user records.

If the type of this address is ship-to or dock, indicate if the address is temporary. This field is for reference and can be useful for sorting and filtering records.

Ship-to records created in operational functions such as Sales Order Maintenance (7.1.1) are automatically marked as temporary. You can change the setting here if necessary.

After: Postal code prints after the city and state.

Enter a valid code identifying the language used by this address. The customer ship-to language defaults to sales documents, such as quotes, sales orders, invoices, and service return material authorizations.
