Page Comparison

The Work Order Map View is an intuitive, visual experience geared towards helping you view and manage locations and corresponding work orders on a map. 

In this visualization you can see:

• the volume of work orders for locations and geographical regions;
• the areas where work orders are open, based on Priority; and
• the areas where emergency work orders are prevalent. 

You can also create a service request and export a count of work orders for each Location/Priority.

Users permissioned to use the Weather Overlay can also see which locations are in the line of sight of local weather events and alerts. See Viewing Weather Events in the Work Order Map View for more information.  

Identifying Icons in Map View

On the Map View, locations are colorized based on work order Priority and Status, as configured in Service Automation Admin. 

The following icons represent locations and work orders: 

	Circles and Circle Colors A circle with a number inside represents a cluster of locations and Open/In Progress work orders within that geographical area. Let's look closer at an example: Info title Example Location Indicator The number on the bottom indicates the total number of locations within that cluster. In this example, there are 11 locations. The number on the top indicates the number of Open/In Progress work orders within that geographical area. In this example, there are 33 work orders either Open or In Progress. A colorized dot represents at least one open work order within that cluster of locations. The color of the circle represents the highest work order Priority within that cluster, with red representing the highest ("emergency") priority and blue representing the lowest priorities.
Example of Priorities	Priority Colors The circle colors are determined as follows: The Priority with the shortest estimated time of arrival (or ETA) is deemed the "Emergency," and has the red exclamation mark. The next 8 Priorities are colorized from orange to green to blue. As the Priority goes lower down the list, the colors change accordingly. All work orders that fall under the 10th Priority and lower are clustered together under one dark blue colorization.
	Location Data Hovering over a location or location cluster gives you the Locations modal where you can see the number of work orders for each location; the number of the highest-priority work order the status of the highest-priority work order; and location details. Those permissioned to see weather events will also see current conditions when hovering over a single location.
	Zooming In on the Map  When you zoom in to see a single location, you will see the highest priority as the GPS pin. A red triangle with an exclamation mark represents an emergency work order being the highest priority for that location. A white GPS pin indicates no Open or In Progress work orders for that location.
	Additional Overlays Alongside Filters, which are the Priorities, you may also have additional overlays such as weather-related events.

Using the Map View Filters Panel to View Locations and Work Order Data

Filtering Work Order Count

Applying the Work Order Count allows you to filter and then view locations where the work orders count of 0 (zero) or greater than one. This will help determine if certain locations potentially require specific types of work orders have been submitted or not. For instance, you may want to know which locations have snow plow work orders and which locations do not. 

Zooming into the Map to Review Work Order Data for a Location

Clicking a Location Name will zoom the map into that Location so you can drill down into the work orders for that Location. From here you can:

• hover over a location to see location details
• view the list of Priorities and the number of work orders in that Priority; 
• view the list of Tracking Numbers for each Priority, along with the work order Status and Trade; and
• create a Service Request for the chosen Location. 

Clicking a Tracking Number will take you to the Work Order Details page. See About the Work Orders Details View for more information on reviewing work orders in this view.

Exporting the Locations/Priorities List from the Map View

In the Map View filters panel, you can export the list of selected Locations into a *.CSV file. Here, you will have a matrix of locations with each Priority as a separate line item. For each Priority, a total count of work orders per Priority is listed.
