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 HQ 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.
