Geocodes help your sales and marketing teams find nearby prospects and assign
territories and campaigns. After you activate a geocode rule, verify that geocodes were added to
your accounts, contacts, and leads. Give your users access to related objects and fields so that
they can review records.

Verify That Geocodes Were Added to Records Because geocode fields aren’t typically visible on a record, after you activate a geocode rule, we recommend verifying that geocodes were added to your records.
Grant Permissions for Geocode Rules When you activate a geocode rule, give your users access to related objects and fields so that they can review new data.
Geocode Fields and Accuracy Geocode information identifies a location using a latitude, a longitude, and an accuracy rating. Geocode fields are available for standard addresses on accounts, contacts, and leads in Salesforce. Geocode fields aren’t visible on records, but you can view them using the Salesforce API.
