Oracle CRM On Demand Documentation Library: Address

The address child object stores information on the different addresses that are associated with accounts and contacts.

This child object is applicable for companies that do not have the Enable Shared Addresses check box selected on the company profile. In this case, address information is not shared between any records, and the address information in each record is specific to each record.

When Enable Shared Addresses is selected, the address child object, (<ListOfAddress>) cannot be used, and instead the shared address child object (<ListOfSharedAddress>) must be used to associate or dissociate addresses and flag addresses as billing, shipping, or primary addresses. For more information about the shared address child object, see Shared Address. To create and update shared addresses, the top-level Address Web service must be used. For more information, see Address.

When Enable Shared Addresses is deselected, the shared address child object cannot be used as addresses are not being shared. Instead, the address child object is used for address operations. See Table 752, which shows the usage of address child objects and fields depending on whether addresses are shared. For more information about address operations, see Adding and Updating Account Addresses, and Adding and Updating Contact Addresses.
