Start automatic route calculation

Once you have set all the parameters, you can start the automatic route calculation based on the Excel® file.

  • To do this, click on the <Start calculation> button. Before the calculation starts, confirm the deduction of the calculations from your quota.

    Note: Depending on the number of data records in the Excel® file, the calculation may take longer. You can continue to work in PTV Map&Guide during the calculation.
  • The current progress of the calculation is displayed on an overview page.

    • As long as the calculation is running, you can stop the process using the < Stop > button. After stopping, you decide whether you

      • really want to <Cancel> or

      • <Continue calculation>.

      Note: Routes that have already been calculated by the time the calculation process is stopped will be deducted from your quota.
  • Once the calculation is complete, a summary of the calculation process is displayed. The summary contains the following information:

    • Number of successfully calculated routes

    • Number of routes not successfully calculated (e.g. due to insufficient geocoding)

    • Consumption of your credit by the calculations performed.

    • Note: If you cancel the calculation process, only the routes that have been calculated up to that point will be displayed.
