      Address Codes Settings

      An in depth look at the Address ID Codes tab.

      When creating or editing Client or Vendor Address ID's, the 'Codes' section holds a number of important default settings associated with the address.  We'll explain how they work and link you to some related articles.

      Note:  All of these settings can be individually changed within a newly created Item. Below are default values that save you time entering new items.
