Understanding Company Address Information

You verify company information to ensure accuracy when you process company names, addresses, and tax information for reporting it to the government.

The system uses company names and addresses from the Address Book record to build the year-end workfile. Before you build the year-end workfile, verify that the company names and addresses are set up properly for year-end reporting.

Note: The system uses the setting in the Address Book program (P0101) to determine how to retrieve the company address. If the constants are set to track address information by effective date, the system prints the most current address record on the year-end forms. If the constants are not set up to track address information by effective date, the system uses the first record in the table to determine the company address.

See JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Address Book Implementation Guide.

The system prints the company name, the last two non-blank address lines, and the city, state, and postal code fields. The system can print a maximum of four lines per company with a maximum of 30 characters per line. These lines print:

  • Name.

  • Address (one line only).

  • City, state, and postal code.

  • Country

    Note: The system prints any country other than the U.S. on the form.
Note: Example: The company address that appears on printed year-end forms includes the last three non-blank lines of the company's address. The address that appears on electronically filed forms includes only the last two non-blank lines of a company's address. To ensure that address information is complete on both printed and electronically filed year-end information, we recommend that you enter all necessary address information using the format that is described in this section. If you do not process forms through electronic filing, you can use up to three lines to enter a street address. However, if you process forms through electronic filing in the future, you might need to change the address to avoid reporting incomplete information on electronically filed forms.
