How to: Use Online Map to Find Directions
If you plan a visit to a customer or a vendor, you can get a map with route directions from your online map service. Online Map can be accessed from the Navigate menu on the following cards in Microsoft Dynamics NAV:
Location Card
Customer Card
Vendor Card
Company Information
