In case you've never looked, the various CRM Entities that contain address information also have Attributes for Longitude and Latitude, though they are not generally shown on the data entry forms.

This evening, I was doing some research regarding populating those Attributes for Marketing Searches when I noticed a problem:

They have a minimum value of 0 and a maximum value of 1,000,000,000.00.

Why is this a problem, you ask? Well, mostly because of the following:

  • Longitude values must be from -180 to 180 degrees
  • Latitude values must be from -90 to 90 degrees

This means that users will not be able to input data for some parts of the planet.

To correct the problem, edit each attribute and reset the minimum and maximum values to those listed above.
