Addresses

Saved addresses, so a lane can be picked by name instead of typed each time.

The list

ID, Name, Company, Address, City, State, Postal, Country, Checked, Contacts and Scope. Scope is This project or Whole domain.

Adding addresses

New adds one. Upload takes a spreadsheet - Template gets the format first. The result is reported in one line, for example "12 addresses added · 1 skipped · 2 could not be saved", with the reasons listed.

Clicking a name opens the address in its own window, where it can be edited, checked or copied.

Checking addresses

Check unchecked verifies addresses against a map service:

ResultMeaning
MatchedThe map recognises it
CorrectionRecognised, with a suggested change
UnverifiableCould not be confirmed
Not checkedNot looked at yet
Checking is about one address per second

The map service allows no more, and the screen tells you how far it has got. A large book takes a while - it can be stopped and resumed.

A check confirms the place, not the service

Matched means the address exists. It does not mean a carrier delivers there.

A note on where addresses go

Address checking sends the address to an external map service to be looked up. If that matters for your data, raise it with your administrator - the service can be pointed at a private instance instead.
