Location History Tracker Report

1. Feature Overview

Monitor and track the daily activities performed by your field sales users using the Location History Tracker Report. In this report, you can also view a comprehensive trail of your users’ location coordinates received via the LeadSquared Mobile App throughout the day.

Based on the location coordinates received and the activities performed during the day, you can

  • View the entire route taken by the user from the moment they check-in till check-out. 
  • View the total distance travelled by the field sales user for any given date.
  • View the user’s last recorded location. This allows you to determine where the user was located and at what time they were last observed to be moving or engaged in activities before they eventually checked out for the day. This data is only visible for the present day i.e., Today. 

 

2. Prerequisites
