A dwelling status must be entered for each address during address entry, so at least one dwelling status must be defined. Dwelling status can also be used as a selection criterion in Targeted Marketing. For example, you might want to send a flyer only to addresses with a dwelling status of “occupied”.
Business Rules determine the default dwelling status that will appear when an address is added (the default can be overridden).
Select Dwelling Status from the Address menu to display the Dwelling Status screen.
Click the Add icon and complete the following fields.
