Mapping Drive Times

Setup Mapping feature – Drive Times

This is enabled in Dispatching Variables. The option Include Time on Job (from units) requires you to have the minutes per unit set on the settings tab of Dispatching Variables. Make sure the country is set correctly as this controls if the distances are in miles or kilometers.

MappingDispatchingVariables

On the branch and/or invoice type, you need to have the start address filled in. This menu is populated by the Destinations table.

Invoicing

Invoices will show a box on the dispatching tab; this is the distance from the branch/invoice type destination to the customer address. You can mouse over the box to get a tool tip that displays the address it is calculating from.
