Create a Location
Creating a
Location is done on the
Territory Edit page.
Switch to
edit mode (if you are not sure how to do this check out the
View and Edit Basics guide).
A Location can be created in a number of different ways.
Two common practices is to use the
search functionality or to use the
draw tool.
Creating With the Draw Tool
The draw tool has a variety of different
location types.
They are used the same way as the territory tool; simply select the tool you wish to use as shown in the image below and then
click on the
map where you would like the location marker.
Creating Using the Search
The search functionality can also be used to create a Location.
Simply
right-click (or ctrl+click) on the search marker and create the Location of choice as shown in the image below.
Completing
Once you have selected what you would like to create, a creation dialog will appear allowing you to fill in information about the Location.
An example of the dialog is shown in the image below.
The address related fields are
automatically filled in by
reverse geocoding the coordinates provided.
At times the address may not be as expected or incorrect so it is important to read over the fields carefully.
Clicking the
save button will save your Location to the map, similar to the Location depicted in the image below.
For more information about the properties of Locations take a look at the
Properties guide.
