The Main address is used by most Automail letters and is typically where most of your correspondences would be sent to. The Billing address is mostly used in IRIS fees, whereby the allocated person is sent the billing documents and any queries regards to them to the address defined. There are two types of addresses that can be set up on clients:
  • Main Address – This address is used to send general communication to the client
  • Billing contact – This address is used whereby the client would prefer you to mail them any bills to. Inserting the address details to the template To insert the address details to your template
