What's the use of the Primary, Primary for country and Private properties on an address - one by one and in combinations? Eg. when creating the address for a new customer or vendor.

Thanks.

    When you create a new customer you always must select an address as primary because AX will use for every relations with the customer, for example in a sales order the customer will need a primary address.

    how ad when will you use the Primary for country for tax registration?

    Do you know how to use a private adress functionally (and adding to role)?

    Hi Daxer,

    In your last post, the first sentence is not clear. Can you correct this?

    Private addresses can be used, namely for workers. A security policy will ensure that only persons part of certain roles can see these addresses. This to prevent all workers to see private details.

    Sorry about the first sentence (ad -> and) :-).

    Where and how is the tax registration attribute used?

    Second address topic: How to setup and use these private addresses e.g. make this security policy for certain roles?

    Thanks.

    Hi Daxer,

    I'm not quite familiar with the Tax registration on addresses. I thought it was mainly used for some countries, like Russia. In the past I had used it to link some registration data on freelancers as vendors.

    For the private addresses, you don't have to create a security policy; this is an existing and active one out of the box. You only have to assign the roles on the GAB parameters. PS. System administrators are able to see the private addresses anyway as they are bypassing all security.
