The Dynamics CRM itself provides this functionality of adding an Entity record on a map.
→ To get geocode for records redirected to a particular entity. If you want to get geocode only for selected records, select those records and click on the “Get Geocode” button.
→ If you want to get geocode for all the records, click on the “Get Geocode” button. It will ask you for confirmation to get a geocode for all the records for the selected entity.
Here you can show all these features with description and processing steps please refer to this blog & video How to set Geocode Data in MappyField 365.

Hello,
I work on documentation. I haven't reached the Form Map control so you can start playing with it and ask questions as you go - github.com/.../wiki
Hello,
Is it the latest online? If yes, you can use FormMap control from my PCF Controls toolkit - github.com/.../1.0.0.4
