Use the map to search for your drivers, technicians, work orders, and tickets in a visual way.
For example, if a technician or driver completes a work order or ticket, they can use the map to locate another open work order or ticket in the immediate area. As a counter worker, you can use the map to see where your drivers or technicians currently are or to track their progress.
The map functionality uses Google maps. If you move more than 500 meters, Texada Mobile updates your location as long as the location service is active on your mobile device.
