Solution

Besides the fact that the address section gives general information about the client's location, Bitrix24 uses the address for calculating taxes and shipping costs. To make it faster and easier for managers to enter a complex multi-layered address, and make sure it is entered correctly, implement the following solution:

  • First, upload the client's database (in xlsx) to standard Bitrix24 Locations.

  • Then, add a new custom type of the field - search by zip-code.

  • After that, add a list of location options that are displayed by zip-code. 

  • When entering a specific code, the system prompts the user to select one of the locations associated with this zip-code.

  • When the user selects a location option, the system automatically fills in the appropriate fields (for example, District, City, etc.).
