📄️ Google Maps Integration
Start by setting up the address validation in Accounts Receivable variables:
📄️ Before first use - validate addresses with Google
Run this utility before using EPASS with Google Maps integration for the first time.
📄️ Customer Address Validation
This guide will help you validate an unrecognized address in Customer Maintenance.
📄️ Invoicing Maintenance and Address Validation
This guide will help you add an invoice for an existing customer, and validate their address with Google Maps. You will also be able to view the nearest service calls to a specific customer.
📄️ View Routes on an Interactive Map
You can view and edit all service calls and/or deliveries, on an interactive map of your area. You can view multiple routes and days simultaneously, which can help you cut down on drive time!
📄️ Defining Map Zones
This guide will help you draw your geographical zones on Google Maps in EPASS. From there, you can overlay those zones onto any of the other maps throughout EPASS. Also, if you choose to, you can have the zone automatically filled in for new customers, based on which zone their address falls into.
📄️ Mapping Drive Times
Setup Mapping feature – Drive Times
📄️ Multiple Mapping Windows
Would you like to be able to open one truck in one window and another truck in a different window? Mapping supports opening multiple windows. You can open as many mapping windows as needed and drag them to multiple monitors if wanted. This will allow you to dispatch multiple departments at the same time or have multiple trucks on the screen at the same time.
📄️ Integrating EPASS with Google Maps API
EPASS integrates with the Google API for our mapping features. To use the Google API, you must sign up for your own Google Cloud account and provide certain API details in the EPASS configuration.
📄️ Looking Up an Address and Viewing Map Zones
You can use the Google Map Zone Lookup utility to view your defined Map Zones. Entering either a zip code or full address centers the map on the location. Your Map Zones are overlaid on the map, providing you with a quick map zone lookup.
