Retrieving alternate addresses

Hi Karen,

Addresses pull according to the mail purpose assigned to them, not by type.   One thing to note is a mail purpose works best when used for one address type.  For instance, we have a development address type and check a mail purpose of Patron when pulling devo addresses, a board address type which has the mail purpose of Board, etc.  I’m sure there are other ways to set it up, but this is how we are currently using in the Pittsburgh consortium.   So if you’re not using a mail purposes you should look into adding those to your address types.

Hope that helps.

I have searched the forums to see if there is any help on this issue.  Currently we are in a consortium and some records have multiple addresses, one of which is primary.  I have not been able to find any report or output set to select a specific type of address.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
