German Toponyms
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 14.0Adds a German cities configuration wizard that imports German city and state data from GeoNames and corrects the spelling of small words in German city names.
This module helps you fill in German city and state information for zip codes. It adds a configuration step called "German toponyms configuration" that appears in Odoo's configuration wizard list. When you run it, a screen titled "German cities configuration" opens with a button labelled "Import data from GeoNames".
Pressing that button automatically imports city and state data for Germany from the GeoNames service. A warning on the screen tells you that adding this large batch of records can take a long time, and that you should check your proxy timeout if you are behind an SSL proxy.
The module also improves the imported German city names by fixing the capitalisation of small connecting words such as "de", "del", "la", "las", "el" and "los", so they appear in lower case inside the name instead of upper case.
It works together with the GeoNames import and German country states modules. It touches the city and zip import process and the country data for Germany (res.country). Access to the configuration is granted to all internal users.
