Address List Types
Business relation addresses and operational addresses have address types.
There are six system-defined business relation address types: dock, enduser, headoffice, reminder, remittance, and ship-to. Some address types, such as reminder and remittance, are used only in financial functions; others, such as ship-to, dock, and enduser, are used only in operational functions. The headoffice type is used in both financial and operational functions. User-defined types are available only in financial functions.
There are nine system-defined operational address list types: carrier, company, customer, ship-to, slsprsn, supplier, dock, enduser, and engineer. These are referenced in operational functions. Operational address list types are assigned to addresses based on the function that creates the record.
For example, Dock Maintenance creates an operational address record with the dock address list type that is linked to the address in the specified business relation with the dock address type. If the business relation does not have an address of the appropriate type for the function, the operational address record cannot be created. The functions, address types, and address list types are shown in Address Types.

To group addresses in other ways, you can manually assign additional list type codes to operational addresses. Use Operational Address List Type Maintenance (2.9) to create your own address groups.
List types determine which addresses are included in lookup browses and reports. For example, when presenting lookup information in the Customer field of Sales Order Maintenance (7.1.1), the system includes only addresses with the customer address list type.
