Use Case

We setup Geo View in this way:

Current Label: Company Name
LAT: Latitude
LONG: Longitude

To facilitate inputting Latitude and Longitude data, we created in the SUBSIDIARIES master storage a new field named Coordinates as a string type:



Then in the Design Mode of the App, we setup the field:



In the fields Latitude and Longitude settings we inserted a formula for Calculated Field configuration:







Download here the formula for Latitude.

Download here the formula for Longitude.

Meaning: these formulas are useful to extract the Latitude and Longitude from latitude and longitude coordinates comma separated. See steps below for more details:

1. Open, for example, Google Maps, search a location (1), right click on the pin and select What's here? (2), then copy coordinates comma separated (3):



2. Go in the App in Table view and paste coordinates comma separated in the relative field Coordinates (1). Automatically the field Latitude and Longitude will be filled:
