Whilst I appreciate the default address formats that have been generated and allocated to each country, I've been very disappointed with the accuracy of these. We figures that the out-of-the-box setup was probably going to be pretty good, but actually, we're finding that it's way off of the mark! When looking at the Wikipedia page on address structures around the world and also with local postal companies for specific countries, we're finding that the D365FO defaults are some way off. E.g. the D365FO setup for New Zealand includes the state, but the New Zealand post office indicates that state should not be included in the address. Here are the countries that we're changing the default for so far: * BRA * ESP * EST * GRC * HUN * IMN * KOR * NZL * SGP * SVK * URY Can Microsoft revisit these defaults and save a lot of customers a lot of work?

I agree with the comment above. I would like to add that most countries now have digital list for post codes and address formats. Additional address components like State and Province etc... should automatically appear for a given national postal service. An example is Peru which uses a Department, Province, District, Population/Centre/ Location and postcode.
