Title: Integrated USPS Address Verification
Post by kevind on 10/31/06 at 06:55:22

I would like to see the USPS Web API Address Verification Tools integrated
into all screens that have addressing information.
With the click of a button, the address information could be automatically
verified, standardized and corrected.

I would love this feature. While we are at it, how about standardizing countries, phone #s and fax #s.

Having a country code lookup would be helpful, as well as making some fields more standardized for data entry purposes. We have a heck of a time getting people to enter data consistently every time. I'm sure it falls by the wayside when they are rushing--human nature, but at least if a field were set up to accept data a certain way (validation) it would help somewhat.

I really wish Inventory Category was restricted to a pre-defined list. At the very least a lookup of previous ones would be a help. While we're at it, a definition of the category would be nice too.......

I agree with David, it would be nice to have inventory category have a pop-up list that can be selected from, with codes and descriptions of codes.

The category codes could be entered like lead codes in AR, for example.

Add us to the list of those hoping both requests are adopted.
