Post Code (zip code) validation does not trigger on customer address when using code

Hi All,

I'm creating and updating customer cards from AL code.  However, Postcode validation does not trigger like when you enter a postcode from UI (where suburb automatically fills in). I have used customer,validate(postcode, mypostcode) and also modify(true), insert(true)

Not sure if there is something specific I've missed on this field validation

Thanks

    Hello  - We currently do not have dedicated Dev support via the Dynamics 365 Business Central forums, but I wanted to provide you some additional resources to assist.  If you need assistance with debugging or coding I would recommend discussing this on one of our communities.

    I will open this up to the community in case they have something to add.

    If you are doing thru code make sure you do them in the sequence you do on UI, or you could also use the function in the post code table called ValidatePostcode again before modify to populate those values.
