Street List Alias

The Street Name List module is a database of pre-defined street name replacements that are used in the Street Name List Validation in other modules. The Street List Alias module allows you to define standard replacements for the different ways in which a part of a street name can be entered. For example, if you create an Alias record with the text "North" and the replacement "N", the system will replace "North" with "N" when it is entered into address fields throughout the Lucity suite.
