The format uses the administrative_area field (not used for Norwegian addresses).

To configure

  2. Edit the address field
  3. In the "Format handlers" check the "Norwegian personal identification number" (see note 1 below)

Note 1: you should add the "Norwegian personal identification number" to your existing address format (make sure both are checked) as this format only handles the Norwegian PID.
