Addresses	Stores addresses that are used in the UserObject and OrganizationObject tables.
OrganizationObject	Stores organizations that are used in the UserObject and BlanketPOs tables.
CreditCards	Stores the credit cards for a user in the Profiles System. It stores the credit cards as a multiple-valued property in the the u_credit_cards field in the UserObject table. It also stores the preferred credit card for a user in the u_preferred_credit_card field in the UserObject table.
Currency	Stores currency and conversion information used for placing orders.
