Change address format

Hi,
I need to change the format address on the top-left frame. The current format of the address is City, Street and house number.
How can I change the format to display house number, street and city?
Can that be achieve in the configuration?
Cheers,
Shan

hi,
You can definately change positioning of field by configuration.
Click on address field
Press F2. Check Component, view and Configuration found fields (Role conifg key, Component usage, Object type, Object subtype)
Eg:
Component: BP_ADDR
View: StandardAddress
Role key (Found): <Default>
Component Usage (Found): <Default>
Obj type (Found): <Default>
Subobj type (Found): <Default>
Open tx bsp_wd_cmpwb
open component BP_ADDR, view standardaddress
Click on configuration tab
Click on Seleat configuration
Select <default> <default> <default> <default> conifguration
Click on edit button
Change positioning of field as required
Save your configuration
You pbm will be solved
Best regards

Adding a country to the Change Address Format menu

I have someone who I wish to write to in Turkmenistan, so I'm using Address Book to create a label for him. However, Turkmenistan (like many other countries) is not listed on the menu of countries you can change the Address Format to on the Edit/Change Address Format submenu, when you click on the address type (home, work, etc).
Is there a way to add countries, or perhaps to specify Other/Not Listed and just use a single blank field to type in the address? When I try and enter a Turkmenistan address according to the USA label format, it looks misaligned and has a gap between the second to last and last lines of the address.
I've searched the forums and all the documentation already, but I can find nothing on this. Please help if you can!

This is what I was doing initially, but for some strange reason, when I paste the Cyrillic in from another document (as I cannot type it myself), the second line of the address gets shifted all the way to the left, outside of the actual editing field. I can't edit it or make it align properly at all, and it looks that way even on the saved Card. I think on the label, it looks fine, but I can't delete the City, State fields, so there's a gap between the major bulk of the address and the country.
It would be nice if there were a way to say what fields you want on a card- for example, drag and drop Street, or Address Line 1, Address Line 2, and delete fields you don't want- like State/Province. (This would negate the need of needing to pick a country's particular format, because you could rearrange it as you pleased, or as was proper for wherever you were writing). I'm just wondering if there's some way to do something to help me-- maybe change something in one of the plist files, or AppleScript? (Though I'd rather an easier solution, if I can get it done, that would be great.)

Mass-change address format in address book

Hi Guys,
I've recently changed from pc to mac (yay) and have imported all my contacts into address book.
I have several hundred contacts that have mailing address in the US, and several hundred that have mailing addresses in the Netherlands and some in other parts of the world.
I'd like to change the address formats to the appropriate ones, but so far have only been figure out how to do that one at a time, or all together.
I can use smart groups to group the addresses I want to change together, but after that I'm stuck.
Is there a way to change the address format from selected cards? or will I have to do this one at a time?
Thanks for your help.

Here is an Applescript you can run that will do what you want:
property CountryCode : {missing value:"us", USA:"us", Netherlands:"nl", UK:"uk"}
tell application "Address Book"
repeat with aPerson in people
set theAddresses to addresses of aPerson
if theAddresses is not {} then
repeat with anAddress in theAddresses
set theCountry to country of anAddress
set the country code of anAddress to my getCC(theCountry)
end repeat
end if
end repeat
end tell
on getCC(aCountry)
set s to "on run {CountryCode}" & return
set s to s & "get " & aCountry & " of CountryCode" & return
set s to s & "end"
try
run script s with parameters {CountryCode}
on error
return text returned of (display dialog aCountry & " not found. Enter a country code:" default answer "us" buttons {"Ok"})
end try
end getCC
In the property statement, change the "us" for missing value to your default country code. Add any other countries you have to the CountryCode list. The first part, before the colon, is the Name of the country as found in your address book. The second part is the ISO country code (two characters). I found a list of ISO country codes here. That list was upper case, but the address book uses lower. If you have variants of the same country name, you can just add them all to the list.
Note: the name of the country cannot be more than one word--I didn't want to work out another way of getting codes. However, if the script runs across a country name that is not in the list, it will ask you to enter the correct value. You can change the "us" in the getCC handler to the country code of multi-name countries in your address book to make it the default answer.
Need help with Applescript? Just copy the code into a new Script Editor document and hit the Run (green right arrow) button. It will open the Address Book and start looking through your contacts, finding ones with addresses, and setting the country code to what you say it should be in the property CountryCode list.
If it fails with any other errors, check the Event Log History window which may give you a clue as to what was wrong with the address it failed on. You may be able to fix the address so it continues. Otherwise, post back with the error and I may be able to figure it out.

Problem changing address format

I live in Japan, and therefore have lots of Japanese addresses. When I imported these addresses into Address book, it automatically put them in 'Japan' address format (although I have UK format specified in the preferences). Japan format is more or less the opposite of UK or USA format, with post code and city first, and street address last.
However, Japan format is only used if the address is in Japanese script. Otherwise the addresses are written in UK format. Therefore, I set about changing the formats. However, when I change the format, Address Book automatically puts the words 'United Kingdom' in the country field. I then have to change it to 'Japan'. As I have about a thousand addresses, this is pretty infuriating.
Is there anyway to change this behaviour, so that the country is not automatically inserted?

Unfortunately you may have to clear out the country field before changing the format.

Can I set the address format for individual contacts?

I have some foreign friends and would like to set the address format for their individual cards correctly. I can't seem to find a way to do this. I will be taken aback if this can't be done - I think the old Claris contact product did that.
Anyone with any answer?
Bryan

Hi Bryan,
When in edit mode, can you right click on the address field and change the country format there? I'm not on a Mac at the moment to double check, but that's what you do in OS 10.4 so I'd be surprised if it were changed in 10.5.
Edit: Here's picture to demonstrate what I'm referring to:

Which address format to choose for Chinese addresses?

Hi;
In Addressbook, I'm trying to enter a Chinese address. I'm standing in Beijing, can't get more Chinese than this.
A Chinese address looks like this:
中国北京市东城区东中街20号3号楼1311 100022
Chinese addresses go from country (中国) first to apartment number (1311) in a single stream, with the postal code last for sorting.
This has nothing to do with the Address format when I choose "China" under "Change Address Format". Is there another "China" that I should select?
Any help would be appreciated -- I'd like to preserve as much of the chinese characters and formatting as I can.
Additionally, if I can manually create a format that goes:
Country-Province-City-District-address postal
... then I'd at least preserve the chinese formatting.
Thanks...

Address Book - Changing the address format?

A couple of years ago I imported all my old contacts into address book. I've now discovered that I had the address format set to USA in preferences and I'm a UK user. I've since changed the preference to UK but it this only affects new addresses that I add.
Is there a way to change those old addresses to UK format? I've tried exporting a V card and re-importing but it doesn't change.
TIA, Steve

Hi Steve, and a warm welcome to the forums!
I'd take a look at Barney-15E's Script here for converting to gb/uk...

Change Address in SmartForms

Hai,
i have a doubt in smartforms 'if u want to change the address in smartforms what can i do? is there any event or not.
plz tell me.
Edited by: Alvaro Tejada Galindo on Apr 2, 2008 6:10 PM

hi reddy,
It seems like you are using an address node, and not a free-form text node with explicit address fields, which was the way things used to be done in SAPscript. This is good. The key strength in address nodes is the standardized way they rely upon address numbers and a few other key pieces of information to format addresses properly and consistently. However, a minor negative is that we lose some of the fine-tuned control available to us with explicit address formatting from SAPscript (e.g. deliberately suppressing certain lines).
Here is a simple test to simulate how a vendor address will look on output:
Go to vendor display (transaction FK03)
Select a vendor
Click on the address option under 'General data' and press enter
On the next screen, click the 'print preview' icon
The address which appears should resemble the one you see on your Smart Form output. From here you can click on the 'change parameters' icon to tweak the settings. One of these settings, maximum number of lines, is something which you have control over in your Smart Form's address node. Perhaps reducing this number will squeeze out the blank lines you currently see. Once you determine the proper value, update it within your form's address node. If the address appears fine in vendor display, but not on your form, double-check the address node to see if something else might be wrong with it (e.g. sending country).
regards
karthik
<REMOVED BY MODERATOR>
Incidentally, the 'print preview' and 'change parameters' icons are available for other address types in SAP as well. They provide a quick diagnostic to determine if addresses are printing correctly on a form

Address Format Help Needed

Could someone please direct me to some information explaining how Apple deals with Address Formats?
I upgraded to Snow Leopard, then synced. I was syncing from what a perfect version which I had saved on Mobileme before upgrading, and I had not changed anything on the computer after upgrading. I expected it to be straightforward. However, I was told that I had 730 conflicts in Address Book. (That's half my records). When I started to go through these conflicts, I found that they all had something to do with Address Formats. One version, for example, had format 'Japan', and was formatted one way, and another version, had format 'ja', and was formatted another way. Also, sometimes I had 'United Kingdom', and sometimes 'uk'. Actually, there were all sorts of strange conflicts, which is why I'd appreciate some general information that I can study.

Using 'Reset Sync Data', I uploaded a perfect version of my contacts from an ibook running 10.4.11. It was when I tried to download this onto another, new, computer using 10.6 (again using 'Reset Sync Data' that all these conflicts came up. There was nothing on the latter machine for there to be a conflict with.
Thanks for your advice, but if I always choose the side with the full name, then I will be sometimes choosing a side that has an incorrectly written address. And I'm afraid I don't want to have to spend a morning doing this 730 times, as very often I also need to check the address from the original computer.
What I'd like to know is if there is a way to do this without these conflicts. I suppose I could just copy/paste the address data, but then next time I sync, will I get the conflicts again? Why is this happening? What are these two letter codes?

JAAS -Incorrect address format-Heimdal

hello,
I am trying to execute the jaas authentication tutorial sited in the following url: " http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/security/jgss/tutorials/AcnOnly.html ". But when I set the "useTicketCache" option to true in the jaas.conf configuration file and run the code it returns the error:
"Incorrect address format."
Authentication failed:
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
I also add the option: 'ticketCache="/tmp/krb5cc_0"' but the error remains.
Before running the code of the tutorial, I have executed heimdal's kinit so the TGT of the principal is placed in the ticketCache, in the "/tmp/krb5cc_0" file.
The version of kerberos I am using is 'heimdal daily snapshot october 2005'.
Does anyone have a clue why this fault occurs?
Thanks in advance!

Check the personal addressbooks of the sender. Most likely he has the

CRM Internet Sales User - address format

Hi !
In the CRM 4.0 Internet Sales application, when 'register.jsp' is triggered to register a new internet user, the default address format always seems to pick the US addressFormular (Zipcode field instead of Postalcode). Would anyone have an idea what change has to be made to pick the correct addressFormular to get the correct address format ?
Regards,
Ashok.

Thanks, Ashok. I will try to get login info.
I just noticed that in inputaddressformat_us.inc, the following portion of the code inside the iterate tag is not getting executed.
<isa:iterate id="country" name="<%= B2cConstants.POSSIBLE_COUNTRIES %>" type= "com.sapmarkets.isa.core.util.table.ResultData" resetCursor="true">
          <% // Should the current country be marked as selected?
             String selected="";
             if (country.getString("ID").equals(defaultCountryId)) {
                 selected="SELECTED";
             } %>
             <OPTION VALUE="<%= country.getString("ID") %>" <%= selected %>>
               <%= country.getString("DESCRIPTION") %>
             </OPTION>
        </isa:iterate>
I think that is the reason. But why it is not executing that code?
Do you have an idea about it?
Thanks,

Modifying Address Format

I found a bug in 2007a PL15 when modifying the business partner address format (USA) with the Setup area. I wanted to remove the row that contains the Block field. When I did that, all of the Free Text fields disappeared and they can't be re-added. When I attempt to re-add the Free Text fields, they don't get saved. Now I don't have a space or comma between my city/state/zip code fields.
SAP tells me that this "will not be fixed in this version." I was stunned. Now I don't have an address format that is usable without the spaces and commas. I needed to remove the Block field because the address doesn't fit within my client's window envelope.
Does anyone know how to change the format directly within the SQL tables? I don't want to manually add each address field on all of my PLD documents.
By the way, the other problem I found is that if you click on a free text field in any address format, B1 crashes. Just clicking on the field makes B1 shut down. SAP says this will be fixed in the March patch release.

Martin,
I saw your post and tested, and got the same result. B1 doesn't always crash for me when I click on the Free Text field, but it does always freeze.
This is a critical issue, but remember we are in a pre-release ramp-up version of 2007A, so bugs are expected. I think you might see more issues that are not fixed until the general release version, now that we're closer to it and more development resources are focused on the general release's stability.
We have been able to work with the Address formats in SQL, I recall for a certain situation we had awhile back, but can't give you any specific details on how you can fix your issue in SQL, sorry.
If I figure anything out, I'll repost here.
