Flavors of the type “Location”, “Area” & map view

With the flavor types Location and Area you can display tasks and projects with geo-positions and areas on a map. Together with the Map view, projects with a geographic context can be visualised and analysed even more clearly.

How it works

1. Create a “Location” or “Area” flavor

• Create a new flavor of type Location or Area.
• Enter an address or coordinates (or a polygon for an area) directly in the flavor field.
• Multiple coordinate pairs can be stored to define entire zones or areas.

Examples:
Location: Single address or point (e.g. construction site, event venue)
Area: Drawn polygon, e.g. a property or work zone
 

2. Activate the map view

• Open Functions in the project or portfolio.
• Enable the toggle Map (Beta).
  
• Optional: Decide whether the map tab should also appear in the portfolio overview.
• Define the initial map viewport (e.g. Germany, Europe).
   

3. Use the map view

• After activation, an additional Map tab is available in the project/portfolio.
• The map shows all tasks/projects that have flavors of type Location or Area.
• Hovering or clicking an element displays extra details (e.g. project number, responsible person, description, other task fields).

Search field and widget

• The search field in the map view can be used to find addresses, flavors, or tasks.
• The widget resolves addresses and shows relevant tasks directly on the map.
   

Use-case examples

• Construction projects: Visualise site areas and manage tasks by clicking directly on the map.
• Field service: Manage regions, sites, and locations on one map.
• Events: Make venues and areas visible right in your project management.
