Map My Selection Tool
With the Map My Selection tool, you can plot and filter a selection of addresses (including those with Apt/Suite numbers) on an interactive map.
- The tool is available on multiple pages, and you can launch it with a selection of records in Grid Layout.
- You can also map selections on a subpage. Select the records from the subpage, transfer the selection to a main page, and then launch the tool.
- You can map up to 1,000 records at a time.
- In order to display on the map, the Address record for a household must include a Latitude and Longitude.Tip: Want to automatically populate Latitude and Longitude values based on the address? Check out the Geocode Utility, one of our CloudService applications!
- Filter addresses by Engagement Level, Congregation or Parish, Participant Type, or Gender.
- Color-coded map points display based on Congregation or Parish, Participant Type, Gender, and Last Household Activity.
- Click one or more map points to save that selection back to the Contacts page. You can also hold down the Shift key then click and drag across an area to select multiple map points.
- Zoom in to see each map point. Hover over one to see the names of individuals at that location.
- If you need to print the map, you can take a screenshot of the area you want and paste it into a document or image editor.
