Challenges
The new AVETMISS standard requires address entry to be validated by third party address provider. The current addresses in Salesforce do not have any validation. An integration service is required.
Solution:
When a new address is added or an existing address is updated, the integration service should submit the street, city, postcode, state and country to a third party address services. A result will be returned to confirm if this address is validated.
