\"Canvas<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a Sales Manager juggling territories, appointments, and customer data across multiple tools, it\u2019s time to simplify things\u2014with maps that work right inside your Power Apps.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the integration of Maplytics<\/a> with Canvas Apps, you can now bring powerful location intelligence right where your sales reps work every day.<\/p>\n

Why Maps in Canvas Apps?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s face it\u2014Sales isn\u2019t just about knowing who<\/em> your customers are, but also where<\/em> they are. With Maplytics integrated into Canvas Apps, your sales team gets an interactive, visual way to plan routes, view nearby clients or locations, filter records on Azure Map, and optimize the route, all from a custom-built Power App.<\/p>\n

Consider that your sales rep opens the Power App on their phone before a client visit and instantly sees nearby opportunities, optimized routes, and key account info\u2014without switching apps. That\u2019s not just productivity; that\u2019s smart selling.<\/p>\n

But, How to Set It Up?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Sales Managers can now create dedicated Canvas Apps\u2014either entity-based or record-specific\u2014for more targeted and efficient sales activities.<\/p>\n

To get started, simply import the desired entity (for example, \u201cAccount\u201d) into your Canvas App. Then, add the Maplytics Connector along with the Maplytics List Control to bring map functionality into your app.<\/p>\n

\"Canvas<\/p>\n

Next, choose the relevant view for your selected entity\u2014like the \u201cAll Accounts\u201d<\/strong> view for the Account table. This will automatically pull in the data from that view and make it available inside your app.<\/p>\n

\"Canvas<\/p>\n

Once everything is configured and saved, your Canvas App is ready to work with all records from the selected entity\u2014complete with interactive mapping and geolocation features.<\/p>\n
