Customer Database Shipping Online Store Address Label
Question:
What is the Address Label field used for?
Response:
Each address associated with a customer (including the Contact Address) may have a short (25 character maximum) descriptive Address Label. Examples of Address Labels are "Home", "Work", "Mom", "Aunt Beth", etc.
If the Multiple Ship To option (Settings/Boolean Options) is on, customers who have logged in and customers who are recognized upon entry to your Online Store see their "Ship To" select boxes on Product List and Detail screens pre-populated with all available Address Labels, including the label of the Contact Address, if applicable. If any of those pre-populated addresses is used, the full address is also pre-populated on the Ship To/Bill To screen; if all addresses in use match, then recognized labels and/or appropriate default addresses can be used, and the customer may bypass the Ship To/Bill To screen altogether. Address Labels are also displayed when a customer accesses his/her address book from the Ship To/Bill To screen.
