Documentation
Definition
Address Type refers to the type of Business Partner's address. An address type can be one unit (for example, address name) or several units (for example, shared distribution list). Some address types determine the communication method by which the document is sent (for example, an Internet address or a fax number)
Use
Addresses are distinguished according to the application context in which they are used:
- Normal addresses (Address type 1): This type of address can either be associated with an application object or be on its own. Typical examples are the addresses of organizational units (for example, company code, plant), delivery address, functional location, and so on. Such an address is identified in the DB by a 10-digit address number.
- Private addresses of persons (Address type 2): These are addresses which are assigned to exactly one natural person, with extended attributes compared to the normal addresses (title, part of name, etc.) for the person. The person with the address-relevant attributes is an independent object, which is maintained in Business Address Services.
- Addresses of persons in companies (Address type 3): These are addresses which contain the properties of a person in a company, with attributes such as Department, room number, extension. Any normal address (address type 1), but not a private address, can be the company address.
