Customize Place Names
PC Miler Worldwide allows you to customize place names to
match the names of your facilities and/or customer
locations. Let’s 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, click your
cursor in the Custom Name field and type in “HQ”
(for “Headquarters”).
-
Select Stubbendorf, Germany as the
location: type “17159” in the Location
field, click Add, and choose Stubbendorf from the
pick list. (You could also create a custom place by
entering a city name and state/ country abbreviation
or latitude/longitude coordinates in the Location
field.)

-
Select Route 1 (the hub route) from
the Windows menu to activate it, and click below the
last stop to highlight that position on the list.
-
In the Custom Place Manager,
highlight “HQ” on the list of custom names and
click Pick Stop. (Alternatively, you could have
typed “HQ” in the route entry window.)
-
Click OK to close the Custom
Place Manager, and examine the Route 1 window. HQ has
been added to Route 1 and marked with an asterisk to
show that it’s a custom name.
-
To calculate the new route, click on
Run.
