Enrich Contacts with Partner Autocomplete

Partner Autocomplete allows you to automatically enrich your contact database with accurate and up-to-date corporate data. When creating a new contact, simply enter a company name in the Customer field (partner_id), and select a suggested result to instantly populate company details.

This feature helps you save time and access valuable business information that is otherwise difficult to collect manually.

Key Benefits

Using Partner Autocomplete, you can automatically retrieve:

• Company name and logo

• Phone number

• Email address

• Tax ID (VAT)

• Full address

• Industry classification (UNSPSC tags)

Important Notes

• A company must not already exist in the Contacts module before using autocomplete enrichment.

• The feature is designed for company-level data only. Individual contact data cannot be searched.
