create/update postal address x++

Hi,

What's the correct way to create addresses via code and to match standard?

for example this one inserts but doesn't update,

Also if I send an existing address, but only change locationName, then locationName doesn't get updated because of a method in the entity "resolveRemittanceAddressLocationId" which sees if everything matches an existing address by looking at lots of fields, locationName is not one of them

i thought if send a different locationName, then it will either update exsiting one or create a new address.. because in standard we are allowed to create two addresses with same details but different LocatioName

try
{
	if(_address)
	{
		CustTable custTable = CustTable::find(_custAccount);
		if(custTable)
		{
			DirPartyTable  dirPartyTable    = DirPartyTable::findRec(custTable.Party);

			DirPartyLocationPostalAddressV2Entity partyAddressEntity;

			partyAddressEntity.PartyNumber        =  dirPartyTable.PartyNumber;
			partyAddressEntity.Description        = _address.LocationName();
			partyAddressEntity.Street             = _address.Street();
			partyAddressEntity.City               = _address.City();
			partyAddressEntity.County             = _address.County();
			partyAddressEntity.State              = _address.State();
			partyAddressEntity.CountryRegionId    = _address.CountryRegionId();
			partyAddressEntity.ZipCode            = _address.PostCode();
			partyAddressEntity.Roles              = enum2Str(_roleType);
			if(_logisticsLocationId)
			{
				partyAddressEntity.LocationId     = _logisticsLocationId;
			}
			partyAddressEntity.insert();

			LogisticsPostalAddress logisticsPostalAddress = LogisticsPostalAddress::findByLocation(partyAddressEntity.RecId);
			postalAddressRecId = logisticsPostalAddress.RecId;
		}
	}
}
catch(Exception::Error)
{
	throw error('Error');
}

//then i use postalAddressRecId to set it in SalesTable.DeliveryPostalAddress

What' the best way to handle addresses?
