Enrich contacts with partner autocomplete

=========================================
|

|

Parter Autocomplete helps you to enrich your contacts database with corporate data. Select one of
|
||||
the companies suggested in the dropdown, and quickly get all the information you need.
|
||||
*Partner autocomplete* enriches the contacts database with corporate data. In any module, enter the
|
||||
new company name into the :guilabel:`Customer` field (`partner_id` technical field), and select one
|
||||
of the companies suggested in the drop-down menu. Instantly get valuable company information full of
|
||||
hard-to-find data for a desired company.
|
||||
|
||||
.. important::
|
||||
A company **cannot** already be manually entered in the *Contacts* application prior to enriching
|
||||
it with data.
|
||||
|
||||
The information provided by partner autocomplete can include general information about the business
|
||||
(including full business name and logo), social media accounts, :guilabel:`Company type`,
|
||||
:guilabel:`Founded` information, :guilabel:`Sectors` information, the number of
|
||||
:guilabel:`Employees`, :guilabel:`Estimated revenue`, :guilabel:`Phone` number,
|
||||
:guilabel:`Timezone`, and :guilabel:`Technologies Used`.
|
||||
|
||||
.. important::
|
||||
When getting a company's contact information make sure to be aware of the latest EU regulations.
|
||||
For more information about General Data Protection Regulation refer to: `Odoo GDPR
|
||||
<http://odoo.com/gdpr>`_. In Odoo, individual contact information cannot be searched for with
|
||||
the partner autocomplete feature.
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||

| From any module, once you start to create a new contact typing the name of it, the system
|
||||
will suggest a potential match. If you select it, the contact will be populated with corporate
|
||||
data.
|
||||
| For example, after typing *Odoo*, you will get the following information:
|
||||
From any module, as the user is typing in the name of a new company contact, Odoo reveals a large
|
||||
drop-down menu of potential match suggestions. If any are selected, the contact is then populated
|
||||
with corporate data related to that specific selection.
