Commence RM: Australian Edition includes a number of features designed especially for Australian businesses. When you enter a suburb, the postcode is automatically looked up. In the event of multiple postcodes, you will be given a list box to choose the correct postcode. Suburbs are automatically changed to upper case, in accordance with Australian Post preferences. When entering a phone number, Commence will check the number of digits are correct then format appropriately. Features such as these help ensure your data is complete and avoid common data entry errors.
