AI-generated from the code · Odoo 12.0

Loads all Swiss postal codes and cities into Odoo so that addresses can be auto-completed. Adds Swiss-specific postal data fields to the city and ZIP records.

This module fills Odoo with the official list of Swiss postal codes and cities, making address entry faster and more accurate.

  • It adds extra Swiss postal information to the existing city and ZIP records, such as the Swiss Post classification number, postcode type, additional postcode digits, language codes, whether the postcode is in the sort file, the delivering post office, the Federal Statistical Office municipality number, and the date from which the postcode is valid.
  • The data is loaded automatically when the module is installed, so users do not need to import it manually.
  • The module works with the res.city.zip model and also loads city data, which is used when entering partner addresses.
  • It depends on the base location and Swiss states modules, so it fits into the standard address management in Odoo.
  • There are no new menus or screens; the added fields appear on the existing city and ZIP records, and the main benefit is auto-completion when typing addresses.
