Set Up Address Autofill

Set Up Address Autofill

Access the
Maintain Localization Settings
task to enable either:
  • Global Address Lookup
  • Global Address Validation
Activate 1 of these features for a county to have the
Vendor Address Components
column display in the
Maintain Address Components by Country
task.
You can configure how an address is autofilled by vendor data by changing the vendor address component assignment.
  1. Access the
    Maintain Address Components by Country
    task and select a country.
    Security:
    Set Up: Contact Info, IDs, and Personal Data
    in the Personal Data functional area.
  2. View the default mapping of vendor address components for the country.
  3. If Address Lookup is active for the selected country, search for and select an address in the
    Address Preview
    field. If only Address Validation is active for that country, enter an address.
  4. View how address information is autofilled in the Workday address fields.
  5. To change the displayed address configuration, map vendor address components to Workday address components. Example: For the United States, Subpremise Number displays on Address Line 1 in the default mapping, but you want it to display on Line 2. Remove Subpremise Number from Line 1 in the
    Vendor Address Component
    column and select it to map it to Line 2 in the
    Component
    column. Click
    Refresh Address Preview
     to view your changes.
Configurable address autofill enables you to accurately capture an address as you enter it, which helps ensure consistency of address data.
