What does this extension do?

The Shipment Address Management function allows you to define one (primary shipment address) or multiple preferred shipment addresses per customer. This means that in the Shipment address for the receipt creation can be filled automatically depending on the equipment (primary shipment address) or with a selection dialog only the preferred shipment addresses can be offered for selection.

How can I use this extension?

With this Extension the possibility was created to add one primary or multiple preferred Ship-To Addresses to every customer. In the Ship-To Addresses they can be marked as primary or preferred, reachable through the Navigate Action Register on the Customer Card or List Page.

The primary marked Ship-To Address will be applied automatically on every document (e. g. Sales Order), after choosing a customer. If there are none or multiple Ship-To Addresses marked for a customer as primary or preferrred, the user gets a dialog when he creates a document or chooses a customer on a document. After confirming the dialog the user can choose a Ship-To Address from the Page Ship-To Addresses for this document. The selected Ship-To Address will be applied to the document.

How does this Extension work?

In most Systems there are a lot of alternative Ship-To Addresses for every customer. The Extension Ship-To Address Management can be used in two different ways, to manage this Ship-To Addresses, so the users can easily select and apply the needed Ship-To Address within their processes.

One way to use the Ship-To Address Management is to define one Ship-To Address as the primary Ship-To Address for a customer. With this Setup there can be only one Ship-To Address marked as primary Ship-To Address. In the Sales and Service processes, this primary Ship-To Address will be applied automatically to the documents, when a new one is created or the Customer changes.

The other way to use the Ship-To Address Management is to setup more preferred Ship-To Addresses. Therefore, the user can mark more than one Ship-To Addresses as preferred. When Selecting a customer in sales or services processes, a dialog will be displayed with the marked preferred Ship-To Addresses, from which the user can apply it to the document. The manual selection of a Ship-To Address in the sales and service documents was not changed. It is always possible to change a Ship-To Address manually.
