Address Validation Setup Reference
Table 5523603 bdev.Address Validation Setup carries one configuration row for the whole tenant.
Almost every field is Access = Public, so another extension can read the configuration without going through a page.
Code
Read-only from outside
Reading these fields is supported. Writing them from another extension is not: the setup page is the only supported way to change them, and a direct write from code bypasses whatever consistency checks the setup page or the install/upgrade logic rely on.
Address validation
| No. | Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | Address Validation enabled | Boolean | Master switch for automatic validation on modify. Off switches off every table below regardless of its own field. |
| 40 | Address Validation Scope | Option (All, UI only, Non-UI only) | Restricts automatic validation to sessions with a user interface, to sessions without one, or lets it run in both. |
| 19 | Address Verification | Boolean | Whether the service call itself runs, as opposed to only the field-level checks around it. |
| 11 | Contact Addr. Validation | Boolean | Automatic validation for Contact. |
| 12 | Customer Addr. Validation | Boolean | Automatic validation for Customer. |
| 13 | Vendor Addr. Validation | Boolean | Automatic validation for Vendor. |
| 14 | Alt. Addr. Validation | Boolean | Automatic validation for Alternative Address. |
| 15 | Order Addr. Validation | Boolean | Automatic validation for Order Address. |
| 16 | Ship-To Addr. Validation | Boolean | Automatic validation for Ship-to Address. |
| 17 | Sales Addr. Validation | Boolean | Automatic validation for the sell-to, ship-to and bill-to addresses of Sales Header. |

| 41 | Resource Addr. Validation | Boolean | Automatic validation for Resource, switched off by default. |

Resource and Employee are fields of their own
Resource Addr. Validation and Employee Addr. Validation each control automatic validation for Resource and Employee independently of the other per-table switches. Set either to true to have those addresses checked on modify the same way customer or vendor addresses are.
Address prediction
| No. | Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 20 | Address Prediction enabled | Boolean | Master switch for the type-ahead. Off switches off every table below regardless of its own field. |
| 21 | Max. No. of Predictions | Integer | How many suggestions the type-ahead shows at once. Between 1 and 10, default 4. |
| 22 | Contact Addr. Prediction | Boolean | Type-ahead for Contact. |
| 23 | Customer Addr. Prediction | Boolean | Type-ahead for Customer. |
| 24 | Vendor Addr. Prediction | Boolean | Type-ahead for Vendor. |

Address data initialization
| No. | Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 101 | Initialization Batch Size | Integer | Rows processed per batch when the address directory is initialized. 0 or lower falls back to the built-in default of 1,000. Between 0 and 100,000. |
Initialized and Initialization Pct. Completed are internal
Fields 99 (Initialized) and 100 (Initialization Pct. Completed) are Access = Internal. They drive the progress controls on the setup page but are not part of the surface another extension can read.
