We feel sad that you have to uninstall the solution. It’s pretty simple. Go to Setting > Solution > Select Maplytics > Delete. Maplytics is a managed solution, so it won’t affect any other entity or attribute of CRM.
There are a couple of reasons behind this:
- You forgot to configure Maplytics settings. Go to Maplytics app >Settings > Solution > Open Maplytics solution > Click on ‘Configure’ button. This will create Entity Map and Dashboard Records for Maplytics.
- Logged in User is not added to Team Maplytics. Go to Setting > Security > Teams > Maplytics and add the required user to Team.
There can be two possible reasons behind this:
- The user is not added in Team Maplytics: Go to Settings >Advanced Settings > Settings > Security > Teams > Maplytics and check whether the logged in user is added to Team Maplytics. If not, please add the user.
- The user does not have Maplytics Security Roles. Go to Setting > Security > User > Select the required User > Assign either ‘Maplytics User’ or ‘Maplytics Admin’ security role.

If the customer wants to create a Geocode workflow for a custom entity and use the Check-in/Checkout feature, then below are two options:
- Create the Geocode workflow for a custom entity and configure the Check-in/Checkout feature on the Dev CRM. Next, create a solution and add the Geocode workflow and check-in entity to that solution. Export the solution as a managed solution and import it into the production CRM.
- To create a Geocode workflow for a custom entity and configure the Check-in/Checkout feature, temporarily disable the block unmanaged feature.
Features
Yes, with Maplytics plotting CRM data is very simple. You can plot any OOB or Custom entity on the Map. For Maplytics to plot the entities the prerequisite is; either that entity should have its address attribute, or it can be related to any other entity that has the address attribute. You will need to setup Entity Map for the custom entity before plotting on a map. Please refer to below link for the same:
www.maplytics.com/blog/setup-entity-map-configure-oob-custom-entities
You can plot maximum three entities simultaneously on a map. For example: You can visualize accounts, leads and contact simultaneously on a single screen of the map.
One of the primary reason for this is that the records are not geocoded. Please make sure you have latitude and longitude data present in the CRM records. There are two ways to geocode CRM records using Maplytics:
- Run the Maplytics Geocoding workflow:
Select records > Run Workflow > select ‘Inogic.Maplytics.GeoCoding’ workflow as shown below:
- Run the Batch processing Tool:

Maplytics binds the following views on the map:
• System Views
• Personal View
• Marketing List
• Maplytics Dashboard Records
Category drop-down list contains the list of all field attributes (Custom as well as OOB) for the selected entity. It does not depend on the selected view. For example, in below screenshot Category will have a list of all field attribute from Account entity:
