Load Addresses tells BigBusiness to show the Shipping tab on Quote, Order, Invoice. The address details can then be shared with UPS or FedEx to automate your shipping.
In Customer Prefs click the checkbox for Load Addresses to tell BigBusiness to fill in the address from Customer or Contact or import from your web store or procurement.
When using the Shipping Add-On to import shipment information from Big Business Server, it simplifies the import and streamlines the workflow to have the recipient's address and contact information copied into the Sales Order, where it can be read along with the other details of the order.
Load Addresses adds discrete fields for the shipping information (e.g. City, State, Zip) to the Sales Order and automatically fills them in from the selected Customer Card or when choosing an alternate Ship To address, from the chosen Contact Card. New dialogs for choosing a Ship To address allow you to create New or Edit Contact Cards linked to the selected Customer.
Load Addresses also adds an additional tab to the Sales Order that displays Shipment Information (e.g. Tracking Number, Charges, etc.) posted from the shipping program back to Big Business Server, and provides the shipping information fields for entering an address directly.
To Enable the Load Addresses functions:
1. Go to the Customer toolbar.
2. Open the Customer Prefs.
3. Click the Load Addresses checkbox.
4. Save the Customer Prefs by clicking OK.
