Fast Patron Registration: Default mailing address type
- Article Type: General
- Product: Aleph
- Product Version: 20
Description:
When we create a new patron account via fast patron registration, we have to go back into the address tab and change the address type from 1 (permanent address) to 2 (mailing address).
Is there a way to make it default to mailing address?
Resolution:
In the case of Fast Patron Registration, the "Z304-ADDRESS-TYPE" line in tab_fast_patron_register determines the address type.
The addition of Z304-ADDRESS-TYPE to tab_fast_patron_register occurred with v20 rep_change 2074; thus, it is available only in version 20-up.
Your site's $usr_library (sys00) tab_fast_patron_register has no "Z304-ADDRESS-TYPE" line -- and thus is defaulting to "01".
You need to add this line:
Z304-ADDRESS-TYPE=02
Note: In the case of regular (non-Fast) address creation, the DEFAULT-ADDRESS parameter in tab100 controls the type. The default is "01".
