Errors/Warnings
| Error | Error/Warning Message | Solution |
| ADDRSU-2 | Residential Address – Town or Suburb is not a valid Town, Suburb or Locality listed on the Australia Post website | This error likely indicates that the Client's Residential Address doesn't match up with the postcode information listed on the Australia Post Website. Suburbs with incorrect postcodes can be amended typically by using the Update AVETMISS Fields function or, if necessary, Manually editing the Suburbs through the Configuration Manager. Once the Suburbs have been corrected, you'll need to manually adjust the Client's Residential Address. This can be adjusted in the Client Personal Wizard, on the Address step. |
