Address Lookup for Dynamics 365

Today we're going to be taking a look at our Address Lookup Solution. To use the Address Lookup Solution all you need to do is locate the address lookup field and start typing the chosen address.

For this example I'm going to use our own postcode. Now I've typed in the postcode we can see that it's gone away and automatically found the road name, the location, and the fact there's 23 addresses registered at this postcode. If I click on the box it's going to show us all of these registered addresses. I'm looking for Preact so I'm going to go ahead and click on this.

Once I've done that, it's automatically filled out all of the address fields onto the form. As well as the normal address fields, there's some extra information on here such as the language spoken in the country, a company name if one is registered at the address, the country ISO, and a type such as commercial or residential. It is important to note that not all of these fields needed to be added onto the form. Where you want to add the Address Lookup, and you can pick and choose what fields you would like to add.

To do this we're using Loqate's Address Lookup API, and this allows us to have a few extra features in here as well, such as error prevention. If we go to type in an address, and we make a mistake it's going to automatically correct this for us. As you can see I've made a spelling mistake in the search however is still bringing back the correct address. This once again eliminates any errors and allows us to find the address quickly and easily.

The Address Lookup Solution is one of our many solutions available through the Preact Solution Hub. It is available as part of our all-inclusive managed service contract Elevate 365 or through our dedicated Solutions 365 subscription, it comes with a set number of Loqate credits when you buy it through us.
