Address Format Callers

Every time an address is formatted for printing, the object and routine that called that address formatting code will get logged in this page. This means if you haven’t run any of the reports that format addresses as part of their output after installing the Street As app, this list will be blank. The list will build up over time as each of the various reports get used.

Some of the reports have multiple formatted addresses on the single report and, in order to make this configuration work for any caller (of which there are many), I needed to make it refer to technical things like Object Type and Object Id. I also included the Procedure Name and Formatting For to allow different settings to be configured for each individual address that may appear on the report. It’s unfortunate that this has to appear so complicated but, it can be extremely useful if you want to have slightly different layouts on some specific reports.

To illustrate how the set up is used, here’s an example of some values and how they relate to out-of-the-box report layouts. Note that each of the rows shown here have:

• Object Type = Report
• Object Id = 1304
• Object Name = “Standard Sales - Quote”
• Procedure Name = “Header - OnAfterGetRecord”(Trigger)

I have removed those columns from the sample to conserve space.

Formatting For	Notes
GetCompanyAddr	Your company’s address in Company Information.
SalesHeaderBillTo	The bill-to address from the Sales Quote.
SalesHeaderShipTo	The ship-to address from the Sales Quote.

For each of the options in the list you can specify settings that will override the default behaviour specified on the Street As Setup page. The option for Include Contact as Recipient has the following possible values and meanings:

Value	Meaning
Default Setup	Use whatever settings existing on the Street As Setup to control how the recipient line is displayed.
Never	The recipient line for this address will never be included.
Always	The recipient line for this address will always be included.
Only When Matches RegEx	The recipient line for this address will only be included when it matches the regular expression that is defined on the Street As Setup page.
Use Specified	The recipient line always be included for this address and will always show the value specified in the Use Specified field.

Alternative Address Card

Bank Account Card

The address fields on the Communication tab have changed to show the common address changes.

Blanket Purchase Order

The blanket purchase order page has addresses for buy-from (General tab), ship-to, and pay-to (both on the Shipping and Payment tab). Each of the three sets of addresses has been changed to show the common address changes and also only show a limited set of address fields unless the Show more option is selected.

There is a perculiar side-effect related to the pay-to address fields. If you use the lookup against the Name field within the Pay-to group on the Shipping and Payment tab and select a different pay-to vendor that has an address that is for a different country format (i.e. you went from a NZ address to a non-NZ address or vice-versa) then the address fields for the Pay-to to group will not update to reflect the change. You can get the correct fields to display by simply pressing the F5¹ key to refresh the page in your browser. If however, you typed the name of the vendor rather than using the lookup, the refresh will work correctly. There are technical reasons² for this limitation in the current version of BC and rather than try to find a programming work-around, I decided³ to leave this behaviour as it was.

Blanket Purchase Order Archive

The blanket purchase order archive page has addresses for buy-from (General tab), ship-to (Shipping tab), and pay-to (Invoicing tab)⁴. Each of the three sets of addresses has been changed to show the common address changes. Unlike the blanket purchase order page, the blanket purchase order archive does not require the Show more to show the full address, however, for some bizarre reason the county fields are not shown in the address.⁵

Blanket Sales Order

The blanket sales order page has addresses for sell-to (General tab), ship-to, and bill-to (both on the Shipping and Billing tab). Each of the three sets of addresses has been changed to show the common address changes and also only show a limited set of address fields unless the Show more option is selected.

There is a perculiar side-effect related to the bill-to address fields. If you use the lookup against the Name field within the bill-to group on the Shipping and Billing tab and select a different bill-to customer that has an address that is for a different country format (i.e. you went from a NZ address to a non-NZ address or vice-versa) then the address fields for the bill-to to group will not update to reflect the change. You can get the correct fields to display by simply pressing the F5 key to refresh the page in your browser. If however, you typed the name of the customer rather than using the lookup, the refresh will work correctly. The reasons for this are explained more in the Blanket Purchase Order description.

Blanket Sales Order Archive

The blanket sales order archive page has addresses for sell-to (General tab), ship-to (Shipping tab), and bill-to (Invoicing tab). Each of the three sets of addresses has been changed to show the common address changes. Unlike the blanket sales order page, the blanket sales order archive does not require the Show more to show the full address, however, once again the county fields are not shown in the address for non-New Zealand addresses.

Company Information

The company information page has addresses for the company (General tab) and ship-to address (Shipping tab). Each of the addresses has been changed to show the common address changes. There is a bug on the standard version of this page (that may be fixed by the time I release this app) that causes the Ship-to County to show/hide incorrectly (currently this value toggles depending on the setting of the Country/Region Code and not the Ship-to Country/Region Code). You’d only find this bug if your company existed in one country and had a ship-to address in another country and those two countries had different rules about whether the county field should be shown.

The job card supports Default (Customer), Custom Address, and Another Customer as options for the Bill-to address and the address fields will only be shown when the option is Custom Address or Another Customer. In addition, the Ship-to address supports Default (Sell-to Address), Custom Address, and Alternate Shipping Address. The address fields are only shown for Custom Address and Alternate Shipping Address. There is a perculiar side-effect related to the bill-to address fields. If you use the lookup against the Name field within the bill-to group on the Invoice and Shipping tab and select a different bill-to customer that has an address that is for a different country format (i.e. you went from a NZ address to a non-NZ address or vice-versa) then the address fields for the bill-to to group will not update to reflect the change. You can get the correct fields to display by simply pressing the F5 key to refresh the page in your browser.

Purchase Credit Memo

Each of the three sets of addresses has been changed to show the common address changes and also only show a limited set of address fields unless the Show more option is selected.

There is a perculiar side-effect related to the pay-to address fields. If you use the lookup against the Name field within the Pay-to group on the Shipping and Payment tab and select a different pay-to vendor that has an address that is for a different country format (i.e. you went from a NZ address to a non-NZ address or vice-versa) then the address fields for the Pay-to to group will not update to reflect the change. You can get the correct fields to display by simply refreshing the page in your browser. If however, you typed the name of the vendor rather than using the lookup, the refresh will work correctly. This behaviour is similar to that described for the blanket purchase order page.

Each of the three sets of addresses has been changed to show the common address changes and also only show a limited set of address fields unless the Show more option is selected.

Due to the way pay-to addresses are handled, if the correct address fields don’t show after you have changed the address country, refresh your browser. The reasons for this are explained more in the Blanket Purchase Order description.

Purchase Order

Welcome to the whimsical world of purchase orders, where addresses hop around like a game of musical chairs! On the General tab, you’ll find the buy-from address, probably sipping tea and minding its own business. Then there’s the ship-to and pay-to addresses, lounging on the Shipping and Payment tab like they own the place. They’ve all had a makeover to show off their common address changes, but they’re shy, so they’ll only reveal a few details unless you coax them with the Show more button.

Now, here’s the kicker: the pay-to address fields have a quirky little quirk. If you play detective and use the lookup to find a new pay-to vendor, and they happen to live in a different country format (like swapping a kiwi address for a non-kiwi one), the pay-to fields throw a tantrum and refuse to update. It’s like they’re stuck in an address identity crisis! But fear not, a simple page refresh is like a magic wand that sets everything right. Unless, of course, you went old-school and typed the vendor’s name manually—then the refresh works as smoothly as a penguin on ice. This odd behavior is like the distant cousin of what happens on the Blanket Purchase Order page, equally peculiar but part of the family. So next time you’re navigating the thrilling saga of purchase orders, remember: a little refresh goes a long way, and always keep an eye on those sneaky address fields!

Purchase Quote Archive

In the shadowy corners of the purchase quote archive page, a mystery most peculiar unfolded. The General tab, a notorious character known for its buy-from addresses, had undergone a transformation as enigmatic as a chameleon at a grand fireworks display. Meanwhile, the Shipping tab, a once-trustworthy informant for ship-to locations, now whispered of changes, its words as slippery as a vat of jellied eels. And let’s not forget the Invoicing tab, that keeper of pay-to secrets, which now paraded new addresses with the flamboyance of a peacock at a masquerade ball. Each tab, in a display of coordinated mischief, showcased the common address changes, leaving the users to deduce the truth behind this address alteration whodunit. The plot thickens, dear Watson, as we navigate the labyrinth of links to unveil the mastermind of this caper.

Street As Setup

New Zealand Country Code

Specifies the Country/Region Code that is used to identify whether the New Zealand address format should be used. A New Zealand address format includes the ability to lookup a suburb code as well as removing the standard post code/city validation. To allow blank country codes to use the New Zealand address format, set the Default Country Address Format to New Zealand.

Active

A tick box that indicates the Street As functionality is active. In order to activate the extension, you must have specified the New Zealand Country Code first. If the Active field is not on, the appearance of address fields on all other pages will use the standard field captions and visibility. The country code will still be at the start of each address regardless of whether this extension is active or not.

Default Country Address Format

Specifies the country address format that will be used when the country/region code is left blank. This should be set to match the country in which your company is located. The options available are Other and New Zealand.

Keep Single Delivery Line

An address line for a New Zealand address can comprise a Unit Line, Building, and Delivery. These values are all entered in to the single Address field and are separated by a comma. When the address is formatted for printing, the default behaviour is to split the three fields into separate lines. If you would like to keep Address field as it was entered with commas and all, tick this box to set a new default behaviour. It is possible to override this setting for individual reports using the Address Format Callers list page.

Include Contact as Recipient

Specifies whether the contact should be included as the recipient in the formatted address. The options are applied to all printed address, although this setting can be overridden on individual reports using the Address Format Callers list page. The option for Include Contact has the following possible values and meanings:

Value	Meaning
Never	The recipient line for New Zealand addresses will never be included.
Always	The recipient line for New Zealand addresses will always be included.
Only When Matches Regular Expression	The recipient line for New Zealand addresses will only be included when it matches the regular expression that is defined in the Recipient Regular Expression field.

Recipient Regular Expression

This field value is used in conjunction with the Only When Matches Regular Expression setting on the Include Contact as Recipient field. Regular expressions are an incredibly powerful way to specify a formula for matching to some text. The default setting for this field is ^Attn |^C\/- |^C\/O and you can restore this default value by using the action on this page and selecting Actions > Set Default Recipient Regular Expression. For more information on using regular expressions and some examples of how this default regular expression works, take a look at this Regular Expressions 101 Saved Example.
