Addresses Setup (AS) is used to record any addresses you may require throughout SunSystems. This includes your customer and supplier addresses, delivery addresses, warehouse addresses, invoice addresses, quote addresses, transport addresses, acknowledgement addressees and so on.

These addresses can be referenced on transactions and printed on any documents, for example sales orders, purchase orders, invoices, remittances and statements.

Each address is identified by a unique address code. When you add a new customer or supplier, you create the address as a separate entity and link it to the new customer or supplier details by selecting the address code.

Let's now create an address code:

From the Navigation Pane select Static Data Maintenance, then Common From the Forms Pane select Addresses Setup Alternatively you can type AS in the shortcut field. Enter the Address Code and description as shown below

Names and addresses for customers and suppliers are set up in Addresses Setup. Enter all relevant data in to the four tabs shown below

Address Code
The address code uniquely identifies the address. This might be a shortened version of the customer or supplier name and the type of address. For example, BROWNDEL for the delivery address for Brown and Sons Limited.
Link Address Code
Select another alternative address code that may be required instead of this address. For example, if this is the delivery address for a customer, you could link to an alternative delivery address.

Only one address line must be entered (address line 1). All of the other address details are optional. The address lines are printed in the order they appear on the form, and blank lines are not printed.

Address Lines 1-5
Up to 5 lines of the name and address can be maintained for the address, excluding the Town, State or County, Post Code and Country. Only address line 1 is mandatory.
