Map Route

The extension adds a Map Route field type that builds a route from multiple points and stores distance and duration on the record.

Generated Route Fields

When a route field is created, it also creates related fields:

Field	Description
Distance	Stores the route distance.
Duration	Stores the route duration.
PickList	Stores manually selected route points.

Route Field Parameters

Parameter	Description
Address Fields	Defines which address fields from other entities can be added manually to the route.
Default Address Field List	Adds local address fields from the current record to the route automatically. It also supports currentLocation.
Display As Separated Buttons	Shows separate add buttons for each configured source.
Default Latitude	Adds a fixed latitude point to the route.
Default Longitude	Adds a fixed longitude point to the route.

How the Route Is Built

The route can include:

• the user's current location
• a fixed default point
• one or more address fields from the current record
• manually selected address fields from other records

The extension builds the final list of valid points and then requests the route.

How It Works in the Record

• The route is shown on an OpenStreetMap map.
• Markers are added for the start, stops, and end.
• Distance and duration are updated automatically when route points change.
• The generated Distance and Duration fields are read-only display fields.

Notes

• Distance display follows the global Measurement Format setting.
