This activity is used to define a location. Locations are used to register
information about the location of for instance an equipment object or a
work order.
It is possible to
enter new addresses to the location or fetch existing addresses connected
to customers.
An address must be defined as visit address and/or delivery address. A primary
visit/delivery address per party can be defined for the location. The primary
address can be changed over time for the location. Locations can be connected
to equipment objects. Service requests/work orders inherit the location from
the equipment and the corresponding primary visit address from the location.
One address per location can be used as the position address. If Request Management solution is enabled, the Map Position is automatically retrieved when a new location is created.The map position for the location can also be retrived by using Retrieve Map Positions command in Location Addresses page. This map position is inherited to connected equipment objects and service requests.
