In order for service locations to display on the Schedule Map, each location needs to have latitude and longitude coordinates. Use the Geocoding window to assign these coordinates quickly using the mapping system that you have set up to use with Schedule (Bing or Google Maps). You can select to display only those service locations that don't have coordinates or you can display all service locations. Displaying all the service locations will not overwrite any previously - entered values.

The Geocoding process is paginated as some users may have thousands of service locations. The lower left corner provides the option to display 20, 50, or 100 results on the page. The lower right corner displays "Page 1 of x (x items)" at the lower right corner along with the page numbers. The selected page number is highlighted. Geocoding only processes the current page. For example, if you have 500 service addresses and you've set the system to display 100 results, you will have five pages of service addresses. If you select the Mark All checkbox, you are only selecting the 100 service locations on the currently displayed page. You will need to process each page separately to complete the geocoding process on all service locations.

Note

The Mapping mapping API that is set up in Schedule Settings is used to obtain the coordinates. If you do not have a Bing or Google mapping API key, you will be limited to 2500 records per day. If you select to display all locations (by marking All Addresses) and you elect to fetch coordinates fora location where the geocode already exists, that location will be reprocessed and the latitude/longitude values will be rewritten in the location table even if the coordinates did not change.
