In the case of large volumes of points in the field linking phase (see chapter linking fields ), Territory Manager automatically switches to grouping points into geographical entities. You can also activate this feature manually by checking Work on geographical areas.
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
|
Skip the geocoding process |
The geocoding process is optional if a field or coordinates are already used for association between points and entities. |
|
Type of geographical area |
Select a geographical entity (zip code, commune, etc.). |
|
Field to use for the association |
Associate a field with the geographic entity type. Optional if point coordinates are used for entity association. |
|
Use coordinates to assign points to their geographical area |
Optional if a field is used for association with entities. |
|
I have fields for the duration of visits |
If the field exists, this association ensures consistent results. |
|
I have fields for the frequency of visits |
If the field exists, this association ensures consistent results. |

|---|---|
|
Points can be associated with geographic entities by selecting both a field-based and a coordinate-based association. This may enable better association of points where one of the two pieces of information is missing. |
The results of this simulation will be exported with the corresponding points and sectors.
