Use this dialog box to specify the input options for the web services geocoding you are about to perform. The Address column entry is required for street level geocoding; the Postal Code column entry is required for postal centroid level geocoding; and for geographic centroid geocoding, you need City/Town and State/Province column entries. You can also use the City/Town Subdivision and the Country Secondary Subdivision if you have selected the Allow Advanced Address check box. You can also use the data options available in the Advanced Output tab for geographic centroid geocoding.

Review the data that displays in each drop-down list you want to use in geocoding and choose the input options using these definitions:
