# Enrich Contacts with Partner Autocomplete

Automatically enrich your contact database with company data using Odoo 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.

## GDPR & Data Compliance

When working with company data, ensure compliance with data protection regulations such as GDPR.

Odoo limits access to personal data and only provides publicly available corporate information through this feature.

## Tip
