Australian Business Lookup

Check the business before the paperwork goes out.

Before an ABN, company name or business detail reaches a quotation, purchase order, invoice, contract or onboarding document, make sure you are dealing with the right Australian entity.

Australian Business Lookup brings Australian Business Register verification into Odoo so you can check customers and suppliers without repeatedly leaving the contact record to search elsewhere.

What Improves

Check the right Australian business

Look up the organisation from the Odoo contact using supported Australian identifiers and company information.

Review the result before changing Odoo

Where multiple businesses could match, allow the user to inspect the candidates rather than blindly accepting an automated result.

Improve incomplete contact information

Apply verified supported Australian business information according to the current conservative update behaviour.

Work through missing ABNs

Queue selected Australian company contacts, follow progress and review each outcome in Odoo.

Enrichment tells you more about a business. Verification helps make sure you’ve got the right one.
Why We Built It

We needed to verify Australian businesses before sending formal documents.

While developing our ZoomInfo integration, we encountered a gap.

Odoo and ZoomInfo can both help build richer customer and supplier records, but neither is specifically designed around Australian business identification.

Before sending formal documentation, we needed to confirm that the customer or supplier recorded in Odoo was the right Australian entity and that its ABN was correct.

Doing that manually meant leaving Odoo, searching externally, identifying the right entity, checking its information, returning to Odoo and updating the contact.

Then repeating the process for the next organisation.

It quickly became tedious.

So we built Australian Business Lookup.

Never Let a Fuzzy Match Decide Which Company You Meant

Ambiguous matches remain subject to human review before supported changes are applied.

Before and After

Before

Leave Odoo, search an external service, compare similarly named businesses, find the identifier, return to Odoo and update the record manually.

After

Start the lookup from the customer or supplier, review the Australian business information in context and apply the appropriate supported changes.

How It Works

  1. Start the lookup from an Australian company contact or a selected batch.
  2. Search using the supported ABN, ACN or company information.
  3. Review ambiguous candidates and the Australian Business Register evidence.
  4. Apply the supported conservative changes that are appropriate for the contact.

Privacy / External Service
