Adding a Family > Addresses > Alternate Address

The Alternate Address is used to store an address for those families who spend part of their year in one location and the rest of it in another. Use the fields on this tab page to enter the information about the address they will use some time later on.

When the time comes for this family to begin to use the other address, call up this name again and click the Swap button to swap the alternate address with the residence address. When the family returns, click Swap again to move them back to their original position.

•Address. There are two address lines of up to 40 characters each. Always use the first line if there is only one line needed. If you need to enter two lines, always enter the actual physical address on the second line (USPS rules).

For example each of these addresses would be appropriate:

124 Main St.

San Diego, CA 92139

Shady Rest Apartments

124 Main St #34

San Diego, CA 92139

•City. Enter up to 20 characters for the city. City is a History List field.

•State/Province. Enter up to 4 characters. Use the standard postal service abbreviations. State is a History List field.

•Zip/Postal Code. Enter up to 10 characters for the zip code. U.S. users should include the "-" character in a 10-digit zip. Canadian users should leave a space between each group of 3 characters in the postal code.

•Map. The map field stores up to 10 characters. Use this field to store map coordinates for this address for any map system that is commonly used in your area.
