On the mapping of a data-set, having a multi-field option with images would be awesome, or having a formula that wouldn't be on the actual salesforce object would help us.

Something like, maybe that last image needs to be a boolean but that is where I was thinking it would be nice to have, with the ability to only show only one image group to focus on the leads/account/?? in that area.

if (x1 & y) = image 1
if (x2 & y) = image 2
if (x3 & y) = image 3
if (x1 & !y) = image 4
if (x2 & !y) = image 5
if (x3 & !y) = none

Our reps visit about 30-40 customers a day and require the ability to see more fields right from the route list view without having to expand each record. They need to see not only the customer's address but other information at a glance, such as appointment date and time, sales leads and the products the customer so that they can have a view of their territory for the day and not miss those they have made appointments with, as well as those that are new customers with leads. It would be nice to either have the fields from the data set displayed right in the route list (with a setting to configure how many fields from data set you want displayed so you have the option to keep it to the one field or more) or have the flexibility to setup the fields you want displayed in the route list separately.

The documentation explains how to use SOQL filters when setting up a Geopointe Assignment Plan.

However, the documentation is silent about whether SOQL filters can be used at the individual Geopointe Assignment Area level. I do see that the GPAssignmentArea custom object has a SOQL Filter field. But, puting a SOQL filter in here does not work (yet). I understand this is a future roadmap idea, so I am adding it here to vote for it.

I want to create a Geopointe Assignment Plan where records having certain criteria get assigned to certain areas, and records having other criteria get assigned to different areas. I can filter using SOQL. I would like to avoid having to create two distinct Geopointe Assignment Plans to do this (because Geopointe requires that I create a distinct Lookup field on the object being assigned for each assignment plan).

Current documentation only speaks to using a SOQL filter on the GPAssignmentPlan level, but I am guessing it would also work on the GPAssignmentArea level too. This would be great!

I would like to request a new feature update to consider for a future release of Geopointe. We have several Outside Sales Reps that utilize Apple Maps and Apple CarPlay when in their vehicles. Currently on their day of travel when they open their planned route, they can only trigger navigation with Google Maps (which does not interface with Apple CarPlay). Is it possible for you to look into updating your application to push navigation routes to Apple Maps which in return will work with Apple CarPlay. Apple CarPlay is becoming more popular with newer vehicles and is really a great feature to use while traveling.

Thanks,

Enhance The Route Distance Calculation Between Destinations to Give Better Estimate (Based on Date/Time Range of Travel). When using Google Maps, they give users the ability to plug in Day of Week and Time of Day when planning routes and can provide estimates on if the travel time will be longer or shorter based on that time.

Example: Say the distance between appointment A and B is 5 miles. On Monday at 10:00 PM it may take me 10 minutes to drive there. However, on Tuesday at 7:30 AM it may take me 20-30 minutes estimate to get there.

Currently your route time estimate between point A and point B is just a standard calculation miles to minutes, however I heard from our Sales Reps that its not reliable since travel times are always longer during the morning or late afternoon since the system does take in account longer traffic times. If you can tap into googles estimates and error on longer side ie (24-35 mins typically) that would allow Reps to make sure they book and can make there next appointment on time.

I was recently asked to come up with a better way for our reps to hone
their health care provider target list. Currently, they have to go to each
detail page for the HCP they're interested in and mark them as a target.
Conversely, if they deselect them as a target, they have to provide a
reason for doing so which is validated. There are also a couple other
validations around targeting.

I thought that Geopointe might make for a fluid experience in the targeting
process given that the map and list view are on the same page. The problem
I'm running into though is our validations. For instance, if a rep selects
an HCP as a target, they're required to also enter a call frequency on that
same record. As you know, Geopointe only allows one field update at a time,
which of course can't be done with our validations.

We need a way to update multiple fields at the same time within
Geopointe. Taking advantage of multi-row/mulit-field editing would also also huge. This could provide a way for reps to select an entire area of their territory and deselect/select all as targets. If this were possible, Geopointe would make for the perfect
platform for performing these types of targeting exercises.
