Chapter 8: Ship-To Addresses

Introduction

The Ship-to addresses selection enables you to enter ship-to addresses for customers in the Customer file.

A ship-to address is an address, different from the customer’s billing address, to which customer orders are delivered or at which a service is performed. These addresses are used in entering invoices and (if interfaced to OpenPro.com Order Entry) in entering orders.

There may be an unlimited number of ship-to addresses for the same customer. You do not have to enter a ship-to address here before you can enter an invoice for that address. Storing them here beforehand is merely a convenience to reduce typing and ensure consistency.

Enter in all of the available information and click on the “Add” button when completed.
