Location Services in Field Portal can be used to GPS stamp the Site, Equipment or Employee's location.

Basic settings must be in place for GPS stamping to function:

•Mapping must be enabled from the Configuration Utility

•The device must have GPS functionality

•The user must have location services turned on

•The user must Allow location access from the browser when requested

To enable the Employee Location menu item and features additional settings required are:

•Enter the number of minutes for timing Employee Location in the Configuration Utility.

•Enable the Track and Log Lat/Long on Time option from Service Manager V/M Setup > V/M General > Options > Time tab

The Employee Location logs are sent on page navigation or change in Field Portal and not when the user stays on one page or screen for an extended amount of time.  The logs are discontinued when the User is logged out of Field Portal.

Only the last Employee Location log is stored in Field Portal and can be accessed through the Employee Location Home Menu option.

When GPS signals are weak or when the device uses network based locations there is a possibility of inaccurate readings.
