In Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012, all postal addresses must have a corresponding country/region. Use this form to validate and update the default country/region code for each company in your organization. When you upgrade from Microsoft Dynamics AX 4.0 or Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009, the country/region that you select here for a company becomes the country/region for address records in that company that do not have a specified country/region. After you have completed the Prepare application data for preprocessing section of the Preprocessing upgrade checklist, you can use the Addresses with no country/region form to change the country/region for an address record.

  1. In the Preprocessing upgrade checklist, click Default country/region to open the Default country/region for addresses form.

  2. Review the country/region that is assigned to the companies in the list. This is the country/region code that will be assigned to any address that does not already have a country/region code assigned.

  3. To change the country/region for a company, select a country/region in the Default country/region code field.

  4. After you have verified the country/region defaults for each company, click the Set to ready for upgrade button.
