Set an alias on an address

In PLAYipp, addresses appear in the geographic screen structure using their actual street address. By adding an alias, you can replace the address with a custom name, such as "Head Office" or "South Warehouse", making it easier to recognize and manage your locations.

What is an address alias?

An alias is a custom display name for an address. It only affects how the address appears in PLAYipp and does not change the actual address linked to your screens. The original street address is shown in parentheses after the alias so you can always see the underlying address.

What it looks like

Without an alias, only the street address is shown:

With an alias, the custom name is shown with the street address in parentheses:

  4. Click Edit.

The address will now display with the alias as its name in the screen structure.
