How To: Change the Purchase Order's default Delivery Address

If your purchases are regularly delivered to a location other than your company address, you can update the default purchase order delivery address. Once updated, the address will be used on purchase orders going forward and will also update any existing purchase orders that use the same address record.
Important: Changing the default delivery address affects both existing and future purchase orders that use that address.

Update the Default Delivery Address

  1. Create or open a Purchase Order as normal.
  2. Open the [ Delivery Address ] tab.
  3. Locate the delivery address, which will typically display Same as company address.
  4. Replace the existing delivery address with the new delivery location.
    Tip: You can update the address either in the Delivery Address section or directly in the address grid on the right-hand side of the screen.
  5. When you begin editing the address, a warning message will appear:
    "Editing the details of this address will change any existing purchase orders which use it."
  6. Click OK and continue updating the delivery address details.
  7. Enter or update the required information:
    • Contact name (for example, the warehouse manager)
    • Company name
    • Address
    • Town
    • County
    • Postcode
    • Telephone number
  8. Press Ctrl + S or click Save to save the purchase order.
  9. A second warning message will appear:
    "You have edited the default purchase order delivery address, continue?"
  10. Click OK to confirm the change and complete the save.

What Happens Next?

Once saved, the updated address becomes the default purchase order delivery address and will be used whenever that address record is selected.

Important Information

Warning: This change affects all past and future purchase orders that use the same delivery address record.
Note: After the default address has been changed, any future amendments to the address details must be made directly in the address grid.
