Cities
Cities are reference data used in addresses across customers, suppliers, branches and employees. Maintaining them centrally keeps address data consistent and supports location-based reporting and mapping.
Where to find it
Go to Setup > Company > Cities, then Add New.
Field reference
| Field | Required | Description |

| State | Yes | The state or province the city belongs to. Set up states first — see States/Province. |
| Name | Yes | The city name as it should appear in addresses. |
| ZIP / Pin code | No | The postal code, used on printed addresses and for area analysis. |
| Latitude / Longitude | No | Coordinates, used where the system plots locations or calculates distance. |
Cities depend on States, and States depend on Country. Load them in that order or the parent selection will be empty when you need it.
