The Field Service with Service Locations feature adds options to provide an ad-hoc location when creating a work order or work order task on ServiceNow AI Platform, Agent Workspace, or Customer Service Portal.

If you don't want to use the auto-populated location in the Location field when creating a work order or work order task, you can add an ad-hoc location. The default validation option for service locations
determines whether you can use the Google map (Using map) or enter the address manually (Without map or No validation). For more information, see [Set the default validation option for service locations](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/R7RjnuOd40evukY04jH9GA "Set the default validation option that will be used when adding locations to a work order or work order task.").

| Method | Action |
|-|-|
| Google map | The address information is entered in the text field or by dragging and dropping the marker. The fields auto-populate based on the address entered in the search field on a map. The Google Maps API key or client ID must be set to use the Google Maps API for Business. For more information, see [Set up Google Maps API](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=set-up-google-maps-api&version=australia&pubname=australia-platform-user-interface&ft:locale=en-US). |
| Without Google map | The address information is entered in the required fields. The Latitude and Longitude fields are grayed out and can't be edited when the default validation option has been set to Without map. Hinweis: If the default service location validation option has been set to Without map, the address is validated using the global.ServiceLocationAddressValidationExtPoint . If the option has been set to No validation, the address won't be validated. |
