GPS coordinates in google sheet

We have many people working in remote locations. We pay them for the travel undertaken by them. We need a method by which we can capture their "Start" location and "End" location on their mobile. It will be useful as an attendance register also.

The fields required

email ID - Their logged in gmail id of the user (hidden)

Date (system date) (hidden)

Time (system time) (hidden)

GPS (current location) (hidden)

In/Out/Start/End (any one) mandatory

Distance traveled (optional)

Purpose - mandatory

Mode of travel - mandatory

Amount claimed - mandatory

Bill photo - optional

The user has to "Start" his journey and "End" his journey by two entries.

He has to punch "In" and punch "Out" in the morning and evening after reaching/leaving office

Each entry will go into a row in a google sheet.

I've seen some app on similar lines. (App to append data to google sheet with image and GPS coordinates ). But, need help to develop it. I'm new in this platform. Am expert in google app script.

Good to has a google apps script expert on board ! :wink:
