Edit a merchant address

You can edit a merchant address at the Merchant Parameters page.

Each merchant name and address combination must have at least one assigned usage code.

Each usage code must be assigned to at least one name and address combination, except for BIL and SHP, which can remain unassigned. When you assign a usage code to a new name and address combination, that usage code is automatically unassigned from its previous name and address combination by Express.

Note: You can configure the name and address for full-service or back-end only merchants. The information in this topic does not apply to front-end only merchants.
