POSitive stores all the zip codes of your marketing area. When adding a customer, the Zip Code Table will fill in details for you and save you time. This SmartFeature is known as "Use Zip Code Lookups" and can be activated in the POSitive Setup Form.
TIP: If your marketing area is extensive, you may purchase zip code lists for use with POSitive to save you time and trouble. This list can then be imported. Talk to your POSitivedealer about how to do this. (see Import Zip Codes)
