#2603 - Autofill latitude and longitude

Closed Feature created by bharath 4 years ago

Can we auto fill latitude and longitude of accounts, contacts, leads, etc. by getting them from the GPS sensor in the mobile?

Dear Bharath,

Good Morning!

Would you please elaborate this more in detail? Our current logic saves latitude, longitude based on the address you select from the map screen automatically if valid google maps key is provided in the configuration.

You can also connect with us over an email @ support@appjetty.com

Hope this helps. Let us know in case of any concern.

Best Regards, AppJetty.

  I've updated the maps key in the configuration. When I'm trying to create an account, I'm not even able to see the google maps screen. We will be working in some remote locations where the cellular network might not be available. In these cases, we want to automatically capture the latitude and longitude and convert this to address when the internet is available.

Dear Bharath,

We appreciate your prompt response.

We can achieve this feature for by customizing our app, we would like to know more about where do we store these latitude/ longitudes? Like you want to save a record offline in local storage of mobile device with the lattidue / longitude and when you sync data with the CRM you want to save it with the actual address?

Is our understanding of this correct or you want something else? Please do share your views on this.

You can share your thoughts with us on email @ support@appjetty.com

Looking forward to your email.

Best Regards, AppJetty.

  Hi,
  
  Yes. We want to store the latitude and longitude information in local storage when offline. Later when the connection is available, the data will be synced to the suitecrm server. From the latitude and longitude, we can get the address using google maps API. We need this because we are mainly into agriculture business and most of the geo locations of the farms that we collect can't be entered as a street number, city, etc.
  
  Also, it would be great if we can collect the geo location not only for Accounts, but also for Contacts, and Opportunities.
