To create a new route, click on the New Route button.
Type the route name (at least four characters). Optionally, you can add a description, and select a color which will be used to display the route on the map and on the timeline.
A route consists of check points. Check points can be added by various means: from the map, from geofences and even from moving units.
Click on the corresponding icon to add check points in one of the following ways:
From map/address. Either type the address in the search field or simply double-click on the map to indicate check points. After that, edit its name if necessary (the Adress field) because it is impossible to do it later. Then add it to the route by clicking Add as check point.
From geofences. Clicking on this button opens the list of available geofences. The type of the geofence (circle, line, polygon) is shown graphically to the left of its name. Click on geofences to add them as check points.
From units. A check point can have no fixed coordinates. It can be a moving vehicle. In this case, visiting this point means approaching it within the specified radius. To add a unit as a check point, click on it in the list.
When the points are added, you can edit their radius. However, in case of geofences, the radius is not specified because their shape and size are taken as they are.
You can edit and delete check points or add more if necessary. To change their sequence, just drag the points up and down holding them by the blue arrow-shaped icons. Note that check points cannot be renamed.
When finished, press Save. The route will appear on the list. To see it on the map, click on its name.
When a route has schedules, it is impossible to change the sequence of check points, add or delete them.
