Introduction Before You Start Custom Form Fields Automatically Update Addresses With Snowbird

 

Introduction

The Snowbird functionality allows you to update mailing addresses for your clients for a specified duration. You can fully automate the address updating process, saving you time and effort. When you know a client's address will be changing, you can add it an designate the dates it should apply. Then, when those dates arrive, the address will automatically change to the temporary address you designate.

Before You Start

The Snowbird feature will automatically change the client's Primary Address based on their schedule. Before you start, you will need to set up the Snowbird feature for custom forms.
