Names

The Street Name List is used to establish a master list of street names for a municipality. The Names added here are a critical part of Street Name List Validation, an optional, but valuable process that ensures that when a user enters a Street Name in another Lucity module, it matches the street's recognized spelling, street type, and suffix. For such purposes, Lucity supports a generous range of standard address formats.

Open the Street Name module and click the button.
Use the pick-lists to complete the Street Dir, Prefix Type, Street Type, and Street Suffix fields.
Enter core name of the street in the Street Name field or use the pick-list to select the name if it already has been added for a similar street. (This field is required.)
Click the button to save the Street Name.
When you save the system will automatically calculate the Street Index field using the other fields on the street record and the Street Alias module. The Street Index field used to validate street names.

Use the filter tools to create a Street Names filter with the desired criteria.
Click the button and select Update Street List Indexes for Current Filter.
A pop-up similar to the one below appears, asking for confirmation:
Click Yes. The tool runs and updates the index.
