In Japan, the Japan Postal Office provides a ZIP code file that you can import into Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations. This topic walks you through the process for importing ZIP/postal codes. This example uses the JPMF demo data company.

Prepare the ZIP code file

1. Download the comma-separated values (CSV) file from the Japan Postal Office home page: http://www.post.japanpost.jp/zipcode/download.html

2. Open the file for editing, and add the following row for column headings.

    LocalAuthCode,OldZipCode,ZipCode,PrefectureName,KanaCity,KanaStreetName,State,City,StreetName,MoreZipCodeFlag,SmallerAreaFlag,StreetChomeFlag,MoreStreetFlag,UpdateFlag,Reason
   

3. In the file, add zeros before any ZIP code that has fewer than seven digits. (ZIP codes that have fewer than seven digits won't be accepted.)

1. Go System administration > Workspaces > Data management.
2. Click Import to create an import project.
3. Enter a name, and select ZIP Postal Code Japan as the entity name.
4. Upload the data file.
5. Click Import.
