With the Google Maps integration you will be able to see all customers on a map that ever had a ticket (customers with open tickets are marked in an extra color). The map is available in the dashboard and also as a dedicated map on a large separate page (just click on “more” in dashboard).
Prerequisites
- Znuny 7.0
- Google Maps Browser-API-Key - can be obtained from https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/get-api-key
Installation
Download the package and install it via admin interface -> package manager.
Configuration
The Google Maps API Key has to be inserted in the SysConfig option:
DashboardBackend###0001-CustomerMap
at Key:
MapsURL
by replacing
MyGoogleMapsAPIKEY
with the API Key.
You need to have customer sources with the following attributes for the extension to work:
- UserStreet
- UserCity
- UserCountry
configured in your customer user map (just take a look in your Kernel/Config.pm to check if you use them). The configured fields will be sent as a combined address string to Google to retrieve location data.
Build geo location data of your customer records
Just execute the following console command to build your geo location database.
shell> bin/otrs.Console.pl Znuny::CustomerMap::Build
NOTICE: Done (wrote 209 records).
shell>
Check if it is working
Go to the dashboard, activate the widget “Customer map” and check if you see your customers on the map.
Enjoy the inspiration how to use this new kind of view (e.g. for optimizing your travel routes).
