It's very simple to add geo capabilities in Dynamics CRM using Virtual Earth.Use the following steps.
1) Create an ContactLocation.htm file with the following code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<head runat="server">
<title>Select zip/postal code and city</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://dev.virtualearth.net/mapcontrol/mapcontrol.ashx?v=6.2"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var map = null;
var location = null;
function GetMap() {
// Open the comments to read values from contact entity page in CRM
var street = "10861 Weyburn Ave";//parent.document.forms[0].all.address1_line1.DataValue;
var state = "California";//parent.document.forms[0].all.address1_stateorprovince.DataValue;
var city = "Los Angeles";//parent.document.forms[0].all.address1_city.DataValue;
var postcode = "90024";//parent.document.forms[0].all.address1_postalcode.DataValue;
var country = "United state";//parent.document.forms[0].all.address1_country.DataValue;
var location = street + ', ' + city + ', ' + state + ', ' + postcode + ', ' + country;
map = new VEMap("contactMap");
map.LoadMap();
map.Find(null, location, VEFindType.Businesses, null, null, null, true, true, true, true, onfound);
}
//This function used to show the Pin Icon at the searched location
function onfound(layer, resultsArray, places, hasMore, veErrorMessage) {
if (places) {
var shape = new VEShape(VEShapeType.Pushpin, places[0].LatLong);
shape.SetTitle(location);
map.AddShape(shape);
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="GetMap();">
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<div id="contactMap" style="position:relative; width:600px; height:400px;"></div>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
2) Host this file on IIS of the same server of the Dynamics CRM.
3) Open Dynamics CRM and customize the Contact entity’s Main Form:
4) Add a Tab called Map (or whatever you prefer).
5) Add a Section and Iframe called Map in the Location tab.
6) Set the IFrame source as the URL of the hosted html file. Uncheck the Restrict cross-frame scripting option.
7) Save, close and Publish, and is ready.
Now when you view a Contact, go to the Map tab and will be displayed a map as defined address.
