Billing and Shipping Addresses

You can define a billing and shipping address for each of your library’s locations. These addresses are printed on purchase orders you send to the vendor. Here are explanations for each:

Billing Address. The address where you want the vendor to send the statement for the purchase order. This address is printed below the “Bill To” heading on the printed purchase order. You enter this address in the Billing Address field on the PO header.
Shipping Address. The address where you want the vendor to send the items. You assign a shipping address to the PO header and to the lines on the purchase order. If you mark the Drop Ship box on the PO header, Horizon prints a separate distribution slip for the individual locations in the PO line distribution using the shipping addresses on the PO lines, instead of the address on the PO header. (For more information, see “Central Ordering” in the “Purchase Orders” chapter of the Acquisitions Guide.)

If you want to use electronic orders, responses, or invoices, you must be sure you have correctly set up your billing and shipping addresses to work with those electronic messages. (For more information, see Electronic Orders, Responses, and Invoices.)
