Hi @Rach12
We completely understand your frustrations and that’s why we’ve build Location Toolkit, an app for the monday.com marketplace.
It doesn’t only allow you to extract a zipcode from a Location column, it also has the ability to convert a text column containing an address into a Location column and many more features!
Check it out and try it for free for 14 days!
Best,
Maarten
It is not ideal to have to pay just to have a zipcode listed. Unsure why Monday cannot do this. If you type in the full address you can actually select the zipcode, but it isn’t offered as an option unless you type the entire address, which defeats the purpose of the quick find ability. It seems this post has gotten thousands of views, @BiancaT is this on the monday.com roadmap at all?
A client’s zip code is a basic piece of contact info any company collects from a customer for billing purposes and more. Not only does this cause all the same issues people have already mentioned above, but it causes breaks in company’s abilities to automate their processes, when a human has to go in and physically look up a zip code and add it. It’s not right for this to require a paid toolkit when this is one of the most basic pieces of information any industry is collecting. Looking forward to improvements to the location column.
Will the zip / post code ever be included by default?
