Editing stop-off points

A stop-off point can be edited and various details can be defined.

The Edit stop-off point details window opens.

A navigation tree is shown on the left hand side while the settings are made on the right.

You have the following options:

 

Tip: You can edit several stop-off points simultaneously. In the list of stop-off points highlight the stop-off points concerned and open the Edit stop-off point details window by double-clicking or via Edit > Change.

Modifying addresses

In the window Edit stop-off point details a stop-off point's address can be changed.

Tip: It is quicker to change the address data by clicking the stop-off point in the list of stop-off points and changing the address in the entry field.

Entering pickup or delivery quantity

Notes: If you enter a pickup and delivery quantity at stop-off points, sequence optimisation is not possible.
It is not possible to enter pickup and delivery quantities for vehicles of the type Car.

Note: If you enter pickup and delivery at stop-off points, the load is automatically included in the route planning (see Specifying settings for route planning).

Entering times

For every stop-off point a stay time or time slot (for example opening hours) can be entered.

Note: Time slots are only included in the route planning if the Time slot routing parameter is enabled (see Specifying settings for route planning).

Tip: If you wish to plan a stay time at every stop-off point, a default stay time can be defined in the settings. This is then valid for all stop-off points (see This is then valid for all stop-off points (see Stop-off points).

Changing the Type of Stop-Off Point

You can specify whether a stop-off point is a stop-off point or a via-point.

Note: A via point is not directly driven to, it serves as a guideline for the route.

inserting comment

Comments can be added to stop-off points which are displayed in the itinerary after route calculation.

Enter stop-off point costs

You have the option to assign costs to a stop-off point. For example, this might make sense if the vehicle always needs to be cleaned at this stop-off point.

The costs entered here impact on cost calculation and price finding.

 

Tip: You can find further functions under Edit or in the context menu of the stop-off points list (see The stop-off point list context menu).
