  4. Select the Primary Address checkbox if the address type being created will be used as the primary address type for the entity selected. Leave checkbox blank if it will not be used as the primary address.

  5. Select the Inactive checkbox to indicate if it will be an inactive address type. Leave checkbox blank if it is going to be an active address type.

  6. Type in a name for the new address type in the Name field.

  7. Type in a short description of the address type being created in the Description field.
