Multiple Ship to Addresses

You use this program to maintain ship to addresses (delivery addresses) that you can assign to your customers.

Each ship to address is referenced by an address code that can be selected during processing in the Sales Order Entry program (e.g. you can ship individual sales order lines to different addresses for a specific customer).

There is no limit to the number of ship to addresses that can be assigned to a single customer.

Multiple Ship to Address Details

Field	Description
Ship to address information
Customer	This indicates the customer code entered.
Address code	This indicates the unique address code for the ship to address currently being maintained.
Name	This defaults to the customer's name as defined using the Customers program, but can be changed.
Language	You can indicate the language code to use if you enabled the option: Multi-language for document printing in the System Setup program. The drop down option Global is the default selection and refers to the default language at the time of the entries' creation.
Ship to address
Address line 1 - 5	Enter the ship to address.
Postal/zip code	This indicates the postal or zip code for the ship to address.
Geolocation	This indicates the geographic location of the address in terms of longitude and latitude and includes a hyperlink to the map directions. An additional hyperlink is available (Resolve GeoLocation from address) to resolve addresses using the long or short name. The Use short names when resolving addresses option (System-wide Personalization) determines which name to use by default. SYSPRO reads the name returned from the map provider in XML. If the short name returned in the XML is the same as the long name, then no short names are available from the map provider.

Geographic area	Assign a specific geographic area to the address code. This field is only displayed when Tax by geographic area is enabled (Company Tax Options Setup). A valid geographic area must be entered, regardless of which tax system you are using.
Tax code	Indicate the extended tax code to use for the ship to address. This field is only displayed if your nationality code is defined as USA, and you require tax by advanced geocodes or you are using the USA AVP sales tax system (Company Tax Options Setup).

Delivery route	Enter a default delivery route code to use for deliveries to this customer address. A different default delivery route code can be assigned to each multiple address if required. When you use the program to copy a sales order, only the route code defined against the customer (Customers) is used when creating the copied order. The route code defined here is ignored. Delivery route codes are maintained using the Browse on Delivery Routes program. This field is only available when the Load planning required option is enabled (Sales Orders Setup).
Delivery distance/sequence	Enter a default delivery distance or sequence number to use for deliveries to this customer's address on the route entered in the previous field. For example, you may want to assign this delivery address as the first one to which deliveries must be made on the default delivery route specified, in which case you enter 1 in the sequence field. Alternatively, you may enter the distance of the customer's delivery address location from your delivery warehouse as the sequence. If you specify this distance against all your customers' delivery addresses on this route, then you can sequence the loads on the route based on the delivery distance from your premises to your customers' delivery address. This field is only available when the Load planning required option is enabled (Sales Orders Setup).

Notes and warnings

USA tax considerations

• Don't switch between using the USA tax by advanced geocodes and USA AVP sales tax system as the tax code key formats differs between the systems.

  • The key for the USA tax by advanced geocodes is 4 characters for the country code and 3 characters for the city code (e.g. AABBBB CCC).

  • The key for the USA AVP sales tax system is 5 characters for the zip code and 2 characters for the city code (e.g. AABBBBBCC).

• When USA tax is in force, tax is always excluded from credit checking calculations.
