This calculated data element combines other Address data elements into a single string.

A multi-line string representation of the address the document will be mailed to.

These various elements are formatted into various structures as outlined below. All of the following structures are defined with the intent of supporting a mail address label that has a maximum of 6 lines. Those lines are as follows:

{Addressee}
{Street Information (line 1)}
{Street Information (line 2)} (Optional)
{Street Information (line 3)} (Optional)
{Street Information (line 4)} (Optional)
{City} {Province/State/Region} {Postal/Zip Code}
{Country}

Notes:

• Each line cannot exceed more than 60 characters. If an address line contains one long string of text (no newline) exceeding 60 characters or contains too many new line characters (causing the address to go beyond the maximum number of lines supported):
  • all newline characters will be replace with a space to produce one long string value
  • this single string will be wrapped to the 60 char/line limit
  • if it goes beyond the maximum number of lines supported, excess lines are truncated.

Where:

• {Street Information} is the mult-line value of Street
• {City} is the value of City
• {State/Province/Region} is the value of Province
• {Postal Code} is the value of Postal Code
• {Country} is the value of Country

The specific formatting requirements vary based on the country of the address.
