Customize Place Names
PC MILER allows you to customize place names to match the names of your
facilities and\or customer
locations. Lets add a custom place to the stop list for Route 1:
-
Select Manage Custom Places
from the Tools menu to access the
Custom Place
Manager.
-
To enter a custom place, place your cursor in the Custom Name field and type
HQ (for
Headquarters).
-
Type jacksonville, fl in the Location field and click
Add. (A ZIP code or
latitude\longitude point would also be accepted in the Location field.)
-
If a pick list opens, highlight one of the ZIP codes on the list and click
OK.
(The Tools menu
> Multiple Name Instances setting determines if a pick list will appear.) HQ
will be added
to the list of custom places.
-
Click OK to close the Custom Place Manager and save your custom place to the
PC MILER
database.
-
Now, in the Route 1 window, click under the last stop, type hq, and press
<Enter> to add
it as a stop. It will appear on the list with an asterisk to show that its a
custom place.
-
To calculate the new route, click Run.
