Geographies for the US

You use geography info for address entry and geography-based business processes. Jurisdiction codes help identify your state, city, ZIP Code, and so on.

Use them for:

  • Address validation

  • Taxation

  • Geography-based business processes

Before defining enterprise structures, your implementation team will verify the predefined geographies and load any additionally required local geographies. This includes:

  • Geography Structure

  • Geography Hierarchy

  • Geography Validation

A geocode is a 9-digit numeric code used to identify specific legal jurisdictions accurately. A geocode is assigned to all US states and all cities with a population of over 250.

  • Verify geography info

  • Changing the primary display of province names

  • Define address style format mapping

  • View geocode info for a geography

  • Manually add a geography
