Its been some time since i visited my own blog...funny but true!!!.
I recently stumbled upon this new feature in FSCM 9.0 for Customers/Vendors, where one can actually view the Customers/vendors address using Yahoo Maps from PeopleSoft...Let us see how...
Yahoo resolves the address provided, you have entered these 5 fields for an address of any country which can possibly be located by Yahoo...
1. Address1
2. State
3. City
4. Country
5. Postal
Once this is done you can either place your custom hyper link or check this on Customers General Info page in FSCM 9.0...
Click on View Map and it opens a New Window of Yahoo Maps with the Customers Address...Also trying to see, if i can make use of Google maps in a similar fashion.

Hi,
Currently the URL only supports Yahoo maps coz the way yahoo maps find a location is easier as compared to google maps. All u need to do is have the user fill in the details and substitute the essential parts in the Yahoo map URL so that a new window opens with the exact address provided yahoo maps is able to locate it.
The URL that u need to use is
http://maps.yahoo.com/maps_result?addr=%Addr%&csz=%City%%2C+%State%%2C+%Postal%&country=%Country%&new=1&name=&qty=
Sample Code is something like
SQLExec("select FO_MAP from PS_INSTALLATION_FO", &Map_Selection);
&Map_Selection = Substitute(&Map_Selection, "%Addr%", &ADDR1);
&Map_Selection = Substitute(&Map_Selection, "%City%", &CITY);
&Map_Selection = Substitute(&Map_Selection, "%Postal%", &POSTAL);
&Map_Selection = Substitute(&Map_Selection, "%State%", &STATE);
&Map_Selection = Substitute(&Map_Selection, "%Country%", &COUNTRY);
ViewContentURL(&Map_Selection);
Hope this helps!!
