Landmarks available on Reports and Maps

The Landmark feature now feeds into most reports on the Tracker Systems customer website. This is a major timesaver because now you can pinpoint visits to customer locations, supply depots, and company locations as well as places your drivers should not be visiting. Once you input the Landmarks, every location report from the Tracker unit will be compared to the list of Landmarks in the Database. When you run reports, like the stop report, you can select the "show landmarks" feature. The report will now list those reports that are within a selectable distance from any landmarks in your account's database. You can easily compare time cards and route lists to the Tracker GPS report to verify payroll, customer billing, etc.
Here's how to set up a Landmark:
From the Fleet Map or Unit Map pages, zoom in to the location on the map where you can identify the location to be landmarked. 
Select the "Landmark Mode" from the top of the Info Column to the left of the map.
Next, move your cursor over to the spot on the map where you want the Landmark to be located. Click the mouse button. You should now see a Landmark Entry box like this:
Type in the name of the location. Notice that an approximate address is displayed to help you.
Next, select an icon for the landmark (choose from the star or blue, green, red or yellow circle) by clicking the circle below the icon.
Finally, click Submit.
Now, whenever you look at a map or run a report, you will see the icon listed. On the maps, just hover your cursor over the landmark's icon to see the name.
