Additional Information

Billing and Shipping Addresses

Selecting a country determines the labels for the remaining address fields, according to that country's address convention. The screen might refresh to display the field names.

NOTE: If shared addresses are set up for your company, the billing and shipping addresses are read-only, and the address fields change to meet the requirements for shared addresses. For more information on shared addresses, see Addresses.

Owner

The alias of the owner of the partner record.

Generally, the owner of a record can update the record, transfer the record to another owner, or delete the record. However, your company administrator can adjust the access levels to restrict or expand a user's access. To reassign ownership of a partner record, you must have the Read/Edit access level setting for the record.

The value in the Owner field affects which records are included in the reports that you or your managers run.

Depending on the record ownership mode that your company administrator sets up for the record type, you might see the Owner field, or the Book field, or both of these fields on the record Detail page, and one or both of the fields might be blank. For more information about record ownership modes, see About Data Access, Record Sharing, and Record Ownership.
