NZBN - New Zealand
Our Comfort pack contains numerous nice-to-have enhancements for the input and data integrity of NZBN numbers.
Our government lookup features were built based on user feedback and are well received by most users for their simplicity and speed!
The following short video shows the capabilities of our NZBN user interface with real time lookup and validations.
Lookup
Our NZBN lookup helps end users search for NZ Companies office data using either a vendor name or an NZBN Number.
A series of options at the top of the lookup allows data filtering to refine search results.
Lookup by name: The results are displayed in real time.
Lookup by number: A single result is shown with details.
Display and shortcuts
Once selected, NZBN Numbers will be displayed like the following:
A new shortcut icons on the left allows the navigation to the NZ Companies Office website for quick double checking.
A tooltip reflects the NZBN registration for the matching NZBN number.
Validation
Once an NZBN number is entered in the system, Eftsure inside D365 will validate the NZBN number against ABR registry for number format and validation.
If the NZBN number doesn't exist in the tax number table, it will be created automatically for the user.
If the NZBN entered doesn't match the appropriate NZBN format, field and record level validations will fail for interactive and non-interactive sessions.
Configuration
See API Keys - NZBN to register for an NZBN Guid.
Configure NZBN services in Eftsure parameters > GovCode > New Zealand > NZBN:
Enter the NZBN key provided during registration and set environment to Live.
Availability
Just like all other comfort pack tools, the NZBN lookup is available everywhere an NZBN / VATNumber field is available, notably in vendors, customers and legal entities.
