Add a new Standard field type: Address

Globalization

Often times Address blocks need to be added to Custom Objects are even Standard Object (often to Opportunities for example to identify precise shipping locations). The Address type already exists but Admins can't create them. Open it up! ; )

Saisai, thank you for the notice that Contact Point Addresses are coming with Summer 20! I think that will solve my use cases for multiple addresses. However, I think there's still a lot of value in having an Address field type, since we might need it on custom objects, OR, in the case of Leads/Contacts being synced w/ a marketing automation tool, may need to have additional addresses on the actual Lead/Contact. In a lot of cases, we have to build a ridiculous amount of fields on Leads/Contacts just so that information can be synced with these marketing tools, as most of the marketing tools will not pull in related objects.

This would very helpful, just make another available field; helps when end-user are NOT entering information and keeps it consistent.

in much of my work, my customers need to track information on physical structures, whether buildings, lots, or locations. In many ways, the idea of a Premise is what we're looking for, and this is often better served with a custom object instead of customizing Accounts for this purpose. Creating this Premise object, with the ability to quickly create all the functionality of an address field-type, would make custom work more powerful for the user, and more simple for the consultant/developer.
