Customer Account Contact Addresses

The Account Details window lists all addresses and other contact information that are associated with the customer such as postal addresses, email addresses, and phone numbers. These do not include names of specific people. Contacts information refers to the contacts that can be defined on a billing account, which includes names and contact information pertaining to specific people.

Depending on how much information was originally entered, you might see postal addresses only in the Addresses section.

Addresses have no expiration date, therefore the address that is active on the account is considered the current address. A customer can define the following:

  • Addresses: Up to three addresses per account (billing, service, and shipping).

  • Phone Numbers: Up to four phone numbers per account (office, home, fax, mobile).

  • Email Addresses: Up to two email addresses per account (primary and secondary).

When the customer billing account is created, the customer normally provides a service postal address. The customer may also supply a billing address, a shipping address, and one (or more) contact numbers. If a single postal address is provided, by default that address is assigned to all the following postal address types:

  • Service postal address

  • Billing postal address

  • Shipping postal address

Complete the following steps to add new or additional postal addresses related to the customer:

  1. Perform an Account Search Module to locate the billing account.

    • Region or State* — Enter the name of the state, province, or region in which this address is located. If the country you selected earlier is the United States, Canada, or Mexico, select the state, province, or region in which the address is located. For other countries, enter the name of the state, province, or region in which the address is located.

    • Postal Code* — Enter the postal code.

  5. Click Finish. The address is saved and shown in the Addresses section.
