Why doesn't my job show on the map ?
Your job addresses need to be geocoded, so the job address has this symbol: 
When a job address is not geocoded it will not show on the map. Geocoding means Google maps can recognize the address in the job. We have more detailed information on geocoding and map addresses in an article here.
One thing also to note is that if your driver or worker has not checked in with GPS for 30 minutes you will not see them on the map.
