This screen is used to create company addresses records for a company’s various branches, or any other location relevant to any of the screens throughout the system.

Address Code

Enter a unique code for the address information to be entered on this screen.  Any combination of characters from A-Z and 0-9 can be used (i.e. 'SMIT', '123', or 'S12').  Usually this code is the branch abbreviation.  The code entered here will be used to reference the address information entered throughout the system, where required by individual applications.  A unique address code must be entered for each new address defined for the company.

In the field to the right of the code field, enter a descriptive name for the address code being defined. This field is displayed in LOVs of address codes, so it should provide details that would make it easier for users to find it.

State/Province

Enter the region code (state code) for this address code, if required.

The region code is used to enter the appropriate province or state for postal purposes.  It should not be confused with the territory code, which is used for sales analysis by geographical areas.

Company Name, Logo File Path On Web

These fields are only applicable to CMiC field and Job Billing (AIA) Reports.

These fields are used to define the Company Name and the file path URL for the Company Logo, to facilitate the display of these fields in PM and JB AIA Reports when the Corresponding Address field of the associated Project is completed, or the JB Control File alternate address for billing contract department is set.  Some of these reports have either the company name or logo displayed, or both.
