Define Location with Location Category Location

Explanation

This activity is used to define a location with Location Category Location, only if the Request Management solution is enabled. Locations are used to represent the geographical location of a particular item, for example an Equipment Object, a Work Order, or a Request.

 If the Location Category is Location,

• Only Location as Party Type is allowed.
• Only one address line is allowed as Type Visit Address.

The map position for the location is automatically retrieved when a Visit Address is created. This map position is inherited by connected Equipment Objects, Work Tasks, Service Requests and Requests. If Request Management solution is enabled, a Location with Location Category Location is created and a Map Position is retrieved when a new general location is created.
