Customer Inquiry - Customer Address Maintenance

Use Customer Address Maintenance to maintain additional addresses for customers, if needed.  The addresses can apply to a customer, a mortgage holder or other third party.  For example, you can assign customer additional addresses to print on bills, lien letters, shutoff notices, or past due notices for mortgage holders, banks or other third parties that should be notified concerning the account.  You can also use this maintenance to maintain seasonal addresses for customers and you can specify the period of time for which the address applies.  You have the option of either assigning an Address ID that was defined during Address Code Maintenance or manually entering the customer additional name and address.
