The Connect to Google Maps icon 
 (
) is displayed next to an address in the J1 Desktop 
 system and allows you to automatically connect to the Internet to locate 
 that address or to get directions to that address. If you want to get 
 driving directions, you must enter the From 
 address.

The Connect to Google Maps icon 
 (
) is also used for vendors' addresses in Purchase 
 Requisitions and Purchase Orders. You may find this option useful if you 
 are picking up the goods yourself or need to give directions to another 
 person who will be picking up the goods. You may also want to use this 
 feature to determine the transportation cost and environmental impact 
 of ordering goods from this vendor at this location.

When you click the Connect to Google Maps icon beside a vendor address, an Internet browser opens Google Maps using that address as the To address. The From address is dependent upon whether you configured a From address.
The From address is configured for Purchasing in the following location:
