How do I remove countries from addresses when doing mail merge and generating labels?
First, tell Sumac which country to remove. You do this by ensuring that the country in your Office record is correct. Your Sumac Administrator can navigate to Utilities > Customize Database > Offices,and put the correct country in the default office record for your database.
Second tell Sumac that when it is performing a mail merge, it should remove the country from mailing addresses. A Sumac Administrator can click Utilities > Customize Database > Preferences > Mail Merge, then click the checkbox telling Sumac to remove the default office’s country name from addresses.
Third, whenever you generate labels, choose an office record (usually the default office record), to tell Sumac not to put the default office’s country in the labels.
