CMS Organization Information window: Organization Detail tab
Select this tab to enter or view billing and shipping address information for the selected organization. You can modify the information at any time (except for the organization abbreviation).
Organization Name
In the Organization Name box enter the name of your organization, up to 50 characters. This information can be changed at any time.
Note that non-alphanumeric characters entered in this field are ignored when the system creates the default Organization Code. Be sure the abbreviation is correct before you save the organization.
Abbreviation
Notice that the first six characters of the Organization Name automatically appear in the Abbreviation box. This is your Organization Code; it functions as the database name within the system and is used for various fields, data tables, and some reports.
This code can only be alphanumeric, therefore special characters you enter into the Organization Name field are ignored. The Organization Code cannot be modified once you save the organization.

Enter your billing information. You can use the TAB key to move from box to box.
Addr Line 1
Enter the first line of the organization’s billing address.
