If one of the mentioned minimal values are not met by the result received from the TomTom geocoding service, it is deemed to be too imprecise and is not saved in flex.bi. The affected customer/supplier record is assigned a value of -1 for the property Geocoding needed and is skipped during the next geocoding runs, until the customer/supplier information is altered, providing more address details. Also the address and precision returned from the geocoding service is saved in Address Precision and Geocoding address properties, respectively, to help you determine if you should adjust the address information in flex.bi or the minimum precision or similarity parameters, to get better geocoding results. To The calculated similarity is saved in the Address similarity property. To learn more about these limits and adjusting your address data for better geocoding results, see Troubleshooting.

If no geocoding results are returned for a customer/supplier or the results are below the minimum precision and similarity limits:

  • no No geocoding data is stored for this customer/supplier in properties Customer latitude and Customer longitude (or Supplier latitude and Supplier longitude);
  • and The customer/supplier it is marked using Geocoding needed property value -1which means that geocoding has failed for this customer/supplier. In this case, there are a couple things you can try, to get the geocoding data for such customers/suppliers;
  • For troubleshooting purposes the resulting address is stored in the Geocoding address property;
  • For troubleshooting purposes the resulting address precision is stored in the Address precession property;
  • For troubleshooting purposes the resulting address similarity is stored in the Address similarity property.
