Associating Geocodes with New Addresses

Business administrators use the following procedure to associate geocodes with new address records.

To associate geocodes with a new address

1. Navigate to the Administration - Data screen, then the Addresses view.

2. Create a new address record.

3. When the Latitude and Longitude fields for a new (or existing) address record are not populated with valid data, click Get GeoCode.

   The Get GeoCode button also appears in the following Siebel views that display address data:

   • Service Details view in the Employees view of the Administration - User screen

   • Schedules view in the Activity List view of the Activities screen

4. Select the appropriate latitude and longitude from the GeoCode dialog box.

   • Select Update Geocode to update only the latitude and longitude data

   • Select Update Geocode and Address to update the latitude and longitude data and the address data

Note: Any manual updates to the address record update the Geocode Valid field to N, and show that the address was edited. Associate geocodes with this address record again. Both the Bulk Geocode and Real Time Geocode functions process only records in which Geocode Valid field is set to N.
