# Tracking the location details for a service organization

By tracking and capturing the location details for a service organization, you can provide Field Service Management, Walk-up Experience, and appointment booking capabilities.

**Important:** Some table and field labels have been changed across recent releases. For a mapping of former labels to current labels, see [Service Model Foundation renamed Entities](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/customer-service-management/renamed-entities.md).

## Overview of service organization

You can provide Field Service Management, Walk-up Experience, and appointment booking capabilities through the service organization data model by capturing the Location \(cmn\_location\) table details.

**Note:** You must activate the service organization \(com.snc.service\_organization\) plugin before you can track the location details for a service organization.

## Location field

On the Service Organization form, use the **Location** field to specify the organization’s geographical location \(cmn\_location\). The cmn\_location on the service organization is synchronized with the address fields, but the address fields on the service organization aren’t synchronized with the cmn\_location. This arrangement makes it a one-way synchronization. The cmn\_location is associated with the service organization in a two-way, one-to-one relationship.

**Note:** Changes to the cmn\_location record don’t update the address fields on the service organization.

The address fields on the service organization record that are synchronized with the location \(cmn\_location\) include:

-   Street
-   City
-   State
-   Country
-   Zip / Postal Code
-   Latitude
-   Longitude

**Note:** With the base system, the Location fields don’t appear on the form or list views. If the location field on the service organization isn’t defined, an on-demand script is shipped with the base system. The script generates the cmn\_location record from the address fields.
