Hello,
I am configuring field service and need to show bingmap on the workorder form.
The bingmap part has a layer of text which is consuming half of the picture, can it be removed?
Also from account, the same map makes possible to open bingmap in a separate window (with prefiled address to search)
Any hint is welcome.
Thank you
Pierre-Olivier
Hi Pierre,
I would suggest you to use any 3rd party solution Like Maplytics from Inogics.
Thanks
If you want to view or manage Custom Entity records on Bing Map, then you can use Microsoft Certified AppJetty's Quick Maps Plugin. It is also available on Microsoft AppSource. You can take a demo from https://www.appjetty.com/dynamicscrm-quick-maps.htm.
Bing maps is OOTB not supported for that entity:
Bing Maps can be displayed on a form for the account, contact, lead, quote, order, invoice, competitor, and system user entities...
docs.microsoft.com/.../configure-bing-maps-legacy
If you want to go down the unsupported path check those articles:
blogs.bing.com/.../address-and-location-capture-in-dynamics-crm-with-bing-maps
www.kms-software.com/.../microsoft-dynamics-365-adding-the-bing-map-control-to-forms-of-custom-entities
With layering issue check this if it applies:
social.msdn.microsoft.com/.../problem-with-bing-maps-v8-in-dynamics-crm-html-web-resource
Debugging the account form you will find in v9.0 instance:
yourinstance.crm4.dynamics.com/.../mapsintegration.js
this file contains the functions that show it works
there is a call like this:
Microsoft.Maps.Events.addHandler(map,"click",handleClick);
then this:
function handleClick(e)
{
openBingWebsite()
}
function openBingWebsite()
window.open(getAddressUrl())
and this:
function getAddressUrl()
var addressParameter = Mscrm.InlineEditUtilitiesProxy.normalizeNewLineForTextArea(addressString);
addressParameter = addressParameter.split("\r").join(" ");
return "www.bing.com/maps; + CrmEncodeDecode.CrmUrlEncode(addressParameter) + "&mkt=" + CrmEncodeDecode.CrmUrlEncode(window.LOCID_MAP_LOCALE)
so you will have to do it similar to get the same result.
