Latitude and Longitude not populating

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi,

Can I get the lat/long fields to populate when an address has been entered, what would be the best way of doing this?

Thanks

    Hi CRM22,

    I had the same issue. The fields latitude and longitude were not populating even if I enable the Bing map.

    From my understanding, they are populated when you have the Field Service module.

    docs.microsoft.com/.../turn-on-auto-geocoding

    What I ended up doing is a custom plugin. I made it open source so that other people could use it and have the fields populated.

    Hope this helps,

    Joseph

    I thought i was having issues due to the proxy. I have tried it on a different network and i still cant see images :(

    Have you tried the code shown in "Geocoding via plugins"?

    Hi JD M,

    I have tried that solution already and it did not work for me?

    As far as I am aware, OOB CRM does not populate these automatically when an address is entered.

    This post gives you an idea of how you might achieve this:
