Addresses (Classic Operations App)
- Michelle Cabaya (Unlicensed)
This page is for the Classic Operations App. For the Operations App please see Addresses.
Addresses used in the Operations App go through an address validation process. Using validated addresses guarantees the address is real and prevents potential delivery issues. Different third-party validation services are available, some at an additional monthly charge. Please contact your CXT Software Account Manager for more details.
Addresses can be global or customer specific. For Inet Addresses, which are created and maintained on the internet user records, see Internet User Address Book or Internet Users.
How to Add and Validate a New Address
If an address cannot be validated, the distance calculation will be based of the center of the zip code provided.
Go to Maintenance > Addresses and click the New button in the toolbar.
Alternate Steps
Click the arrow next to the New button, or press Alt + N keys and select Address.
Enter the address information. Required information to validate an address is:
Address
The Address field is the street address in "US Postal Code" format. This includes numeric address, street name, and proper prefixes (N, S, E, W, etc), suffixes (Place, Pl, Road, Rd, Lane, Ln), and abbreviations when used. If a suite or room number is included in this field, the validation process will move it to the Suite/Room/Apartment field.
City
State/Zip/+
Enter a Customer ID for the address to be customer specific. The default is set to 0, meaning all customers can use the address. See Global Address vs Customer Specific Address for more information.
Automatically or manually validate the address:
Click the Process Address button to automatically validate an address.
Check the Validated checkbox to manually validate an address.
How to Edit an Address
Go to Maintenance > Addresses.
Double-click the address you would like to edit.
How to Delete an Address
Go to Maintenance > Addresses.
Click the address you would like to delete.
Click the delete icon in the toolbar.
Address Form
General
The General tab of the address form contains the address, phone, and default order information.
Details
The Details tab of the address form display geocoded location data in addition to several audit tracking fields.
Location Barcode
The Location Barcode tab of the address form is visible once the address is saved. It displays the generated location barcode label which can be copied to the clipboard and pasted into a document for printing. Location barcodes are customer specific.
The address must be processed right before generating the location barcode. If the address was already validated, it must be processed again to generate the barcode.
Orange and Red Fields After Validation
Do you see red or orange highlighted fields after you have validated the form? If so, look at those fields to make sure they are correct. The original information you entered will be on the right. Click the arrow button next to any field that you did not want to be changed, or click the arrow button next to "Revert All Original Address Information" if there is more than one field.
What do the colors mean?
Orange - Minor changes such as:
Address number or street name changes
City name changes and +4 was entered
Postal code changes.
Example: The original postal code entered was wrong so the corrected change is highlighted in orange.
Red - Blank required fields or major changes such as:
City name changes and +4 value removed
City name and postal code change
Example: The original city entered did not match so the corrected change is highlighted red.
Global Address vs Customer Specific Address
A global address is available when placing orders for any customer in the Operations App. A customer specific address is available to only that specific customer ID during order placement inside the Operations App.
Example
Customer 1 has a customer specific address for the Phoenix Zoo.
Customer 1106 will not be able to see the Phoenix Zoo address.
However, if the Phoenix Art Museum is set up as a global address, where the Customer ID is set to 0, then both Customer 1 and Customer 1106 can see the Phoenix Art Museum address.
