Zip Code Clean Up

When there are multiple entries for a zip code, often due to spelling errors or missing information, you can merge all of them into a single entry. The option to merge zip codes is available when adding or editing customer or vendor records. This functionality is available in TireMaster 9.4.0 and newer.

Note: Merging zip codes is not for use in scenarios in which a single zip code is assigned to multiple cities or towns. Example: The Saint Paul, MN zip code 55120 is also used for the suburbs Eagan and Mendota Heights.

To merge zip codes

1. Type the zip code on the customer or vendor maintenance screen. The Zip Codes screen opens.
2. Select the zip code entry you want to keep, and click Merge Zip Codes.
3. Do the following as needed:

Correct spelling errors.

Implement consistent use of capital and lowercase letters.

Add missing information.

4. Make sure the check box is selected for each data type you want to merge.
5. Click OK. TireMaster combines the entries into a single zip code.
6. Click OK to assign the updated zip code to the customer or vendor you're working with.
