Delivery address _ Attribute ADDR_SHIPT

Question

Hi experts
We have maintain plant wise addresses in the tab "Edit Internal addresses"  and asssigned the delivery address numbers to the attribute ADDR_SHIPT in PPOMA_BBP.
However when we are creating the shopping cart it pick up the default address maintained in the Edit Internal Address where there is radio button for default address.
can we deactivate that radio button and direct that the address should be picked up from the attribute ADDR_SHIPT.
This is required so that when user creates a SC the address is defaulted  from the ADDR_SHIPT.
We have tick on as default in PPOMA_BBP - ADDR_SHIPT attribute.
Can some throw light on this,
regards,

Nimish,
In SRM, you can create addresses in the system (stored in table ADRC) and asssign them to a business partner.
This business partner should be your company code org ID defined in PPOMA_BBP.
The format of your flat file should contain the fields needed by the function I gave in this thread. It should at least contain the mandatory fields (ex: description, name, street, post code, city, country).
One issue: the addresses might be created with the BUPA/company name instead of the entered name/description (this can be overrided by a BUPA BADI).
Those addresses will get a new address number in SRM (ADRC & BUT020).
When transfering data to backend documents, delivery addresses can be passed to R/3, where a new address will be created (a new ADRC entry).
Look at a recent thread on transfer of delivery address to R/3 and related OSS notes.
