External Lookup – Australian Business Number
Business Background
Look up external information on businesses registered in Australia using Titan Web.
Titan Solution
You can use the external lookup widget to look up external business information, such as the ABN, ACN, or name.
The widget will provide access to publicly available information when businesses register for an Australian Business Number (ABN) or have an Australian Company Number (ACN) or a business name. The latter is useful when you don’t have an ABN or ACN.

- Select the + icon to add an element.
- Under the Widget option, drag-and-drop the External Lookup widget to the canvas.
