Location Distance Integration

[Kenneth_Akers]

Hello all,

I have followed the tutorial in the below link to a “T” and I cannot seem to get it to work. Does anyone know if this is still a workable thing to do in ERPNext? Thanks so much for the help. I am pretty new to the ERP and I am loving what I have been able to do so far.

There is a geolocation field available in ERPNext now, maybe you can check this link

@Pawan,

Thanks so much for the reply. I looked into the Geolocation, but I am not sure how to get this working. For our needs, we need to use an address field to pin a location on a map. Leaflet seems to only work with Coordinates so I am not sure how to get an entered address to convert into the required Lat/Lon.

I would really love to get directions and/or show the distance between two locations and I cannot find enough documentation on the Geolocation to make this work properly.

Thanks again for the help!

You can look at google’s geocoding APIs for more information, these have an ability to convert address to latitude longitude and vice-versa as well.
