Inventory map

Displays in CS Deals have a geographic location — an address and a pair of coordinates. In a display’s form the map places the display’s pin, and in the inventory picker it shows the displays you can add to a proposal.

Placing a pin

When you create or edit a display, the location section includes a map. Click the map to place a pin, or type coordinates directly into the latitude and longitude fields. The pin and the coordinate fields stay in sync.

For route-based displays (installation kind set to route), the map shows an ordered sequence of stop points instead of a single pin. Each stop point has its own coordinates and an optional label. The single-address field is hidden for route-based displays because the location is defined by the route itself.

The map in the inventory picker

The inventory picker of the Quick Proposal wizard and of Add inventory in a proposal shows a map beside the list. The map and the list show the same displays and follow the same filters.

Tick Search as I move the map to limit the list to the part of the map on screen. The list follows the map as you pan and zoom, and the filter shows as the chip Map view. Hiding the map removes the limit.

Fit to results zooms the map to the displays in the list.

Click a pin to select the display, or to deselect it. If the display’s row is on the loaded page of the table, the table scrolls to it.

Hover a pin to see the display’s card: its photo, its name and GID, and the other columns shown in the table, in the table’s order, except the distance columns. When near places are active, the card also lists the matching places under Nearby, from your criteria.

Pins close to each other are grouped into a cluster. A cluster shows how many displays it holds and how many of them are selected, and offers Zoom in and buttons to select or remove all of its displays. Several displays at one point open as a list.

To keep the displays that stand near particular places, such as cafes or a shopping center, use nearby places.

The public map

The map link of a Quick Proposal opens a public map of the selected displays. Clicking a pin on it shows the display name, address, format, and installation kind. Price and discount are never shown on public maps.

Sharing inventory publicly covers the public map link and what recipients see.
