Hello everyone, and Happy New Year, BTW.

Is there some switch we need to flip in order to add a Canadian address to the newly created company in TAM? Or have I totally lost it??

Thanks for the help :-)

I don't think so. I think that's why they have the Canadian version. I think you have to figure out how to cram the address in a US-based database. We had a client move to Canada, but still owned property here in Indiana and we had to find an creative way to insert the address -  we put the city, province and "canada" all into the city field: "Garden Bay BC Canada", then we were able to put the postal code in the zip code field, even though it had letters.

Thanks Jim, I couldn't get around the ZIP code, I forgot it was 1811, I must have been daydreaming that I was in the 21st century. >:(

In Utilities, there's a place (can't remember now) where you could add states codes.  I had a UK account location so added UK as a "state".  TAM still didn't like the postal code so I put that in after the city.

We added all the Canadian provinces as States so that it wouldn't reject them.
