In my case I would set the current lacation of the user as a sale point location when the sale point is a mobile location.

I miss the option to add the user position as a possible value in the set column action.

With what we currently have now, you must get the location from the user first before writing them elsewhere in the app.

I’m not sure they would plan for something like this here, do you have a text somewhere that you’re collecting their location from this action?

Thank you for your replay.

I added this to my form.

Now I can set the column in the sale point tab.
