Is there Lat/Long functionality with Dynamics NAV and AvaTax?

Overview

You have a customer who has only provided you with lat/long for their address and would like to know if you can use AvaTax for their invoices.

Environment

Microsoft Dynamics NAV

Resolution

• In NAV, find the customer record and go to edit the ship to address
  • Then choose the Latitude/Longitude button
  • Input the information and save
  • Please keep in mind, you can not have ANY information at the address level of the Ship to record.
  • 
  • 
• Once you have created the lat/long record, you are able to create another ship to record/code using a full address or another lat/long coordinate.
  • This will have to be done, if you plan on using Entity Use Codes. As AvaTax is not able to assign Entity Use Codes to lat/long records.
• For more information on using lat/long in Dynamics Nav, please review this article.

Note: You can NOT validate lat/long coordinates. Doing so will produce errors.
