# Set up EDI setup for customer address

For each customer, you can set up several addresses. For each of these addresses, you can set up specific EDI settings.

For example, you can define:

- The Global Location Number (GLN code). You can use the GLN code in EDI to identify the unique location.
- Which EDI document flows are not applicable for a address. By default, the EDI document flows, as defined for the customer, are applicable. However, sometimes, an EDI document flow is not applicable for a customer address. Example: For a specific address, no EDI confirmation is required. In this case, you can disable the use of the EDI confirmation document flow for the customer address. As a result, when a sales order is created for the customer address, on the sales order header, in the **EDI** section, in the **EDI confirmation** field '**No**' is selected.
