Enabling maps

To enable maps, define the site, select a map provider, define a license key and any specific map provider options that are required, such as https support.

About this task

You add map provider details to a map so that records such as work orders can appear on the map. When a record includes an address, and longitude and latitude or x and y coordinates, that record can appear on a map.

Procedure

  1. In the Map Manager application, click New Map.
  2. Select the map provider. You must obtain the appropriate license key from the map provider that you select.

  4. Specify the map provider details.
  5. Specify the initial map location.
  6. Select the Active check box to make this map active for the sites that you specified and save the map.
