Assigning Stops to a Line

If your stops have been geocoded, you can select them on map and add them to the selected line on the Drive tab.

  1. To open the system map, click System Map: System Map
  2. Click Route Definition > Edit or click Edit: Edit button

    The Edit dialog box appears. Open the Drive tab.

  3. Press SHIFT and on the system map, click the points along the route trace (from the start point to the end point).
  4. In the Select frame, depending on whether you want to add nodes or stops or both, choose one of the following options:
    • Nodes Only
    • Stops Only
    • Both

    If you choose Both and require a node to be added as a stop, you must edit it manually after it has been added to the line.

  5. In the Search in field, overwrite the value set as the default within which you want to search for stops in the system map. For example, type "30". The system uses the unit of measure specified in the Distance property in File > Properties > Formats tab.
  6. Optional: Select the following options as required:
  • Left Side - If the vehicle is expected to go to a stop on the left side of the street.
  • In Service Only - To display the stops that are in service in the grid only
  1. Click Get Stops. The stops found within the radius of the search area you clicked on the system map appear in the grid. They are arranged in sequence between the time points. The following sample result in the graphic shows one stop, which is also highlighted on the map.
