Address configuration

Use the Address configuration to define additional required fields for your addresses, and to enter names for the optional fields that Infor Public Sector uses in user messages.

The root CONFIG node can have up to eight children. The ADDRESS, BLOCK, INTERSECTION, and RANGE nodes define required fields for the different types of address records in Infor Public Sector. Infor Public Sector checks the required fields during any add or update operation for an address record of the selected type.

Each of these nodes can have one REQUIRED node as a child, which in turn can have one or more COLUMNS nodes as children. Each COLUMNS node defines a required field, and can have these attributes:

Attribute Description
Bind Drilldown to the common ID of the required column. For example, if you enter StreetNumber, users will be required to enter a value in the Street Number field when they add or update address records.
Moniker Moniker of the business object for the required field.

The OPTIONA, OPTIONB, OPTIONC, and OPTIOND nodes correspond to the OPTA, OPTB, OPTC, and OPTD columns in the ADDRESS table. These are extra database columns that are available in case you want to add additional address fields in the Content Manager. Note that if you add optional fields, you must enter a name for each field in the Content Manager. The name you enter in the Configuration Editor is only displayed in user messages. For example, if you add an optional field and make it required, Infor Public Sector will use the name you enter here when showing a message indicating that the field is required.

Each option node has one attribute:

Attribute Description
Name Name that Infor Public Sector will use for the selected field in user messages.
