Route by Map | Enhanced Routing Capabilities


This article was updated on 08.09.2023 





On the Unassigned Services screen, there is a toggle at the top right for "Map View" that will allow you to view your properties on a map while scheduling, instead of just the table view.  


Note You may also set the map view as your default view if you would like by going to Global Settings page under DEFAULT ASSIGN SERVICES VIEW.


The "map view" screen is a screen that displays both the map and the properties list at the same time (map on top and properties list on the bottom).  As you filter the list of available work ("unassigned services"), the map will update to display only those properties as you click the "Update Map" button at the bottom of the filters section.  Also, you can zoom in or out on the map to zero in on specific areas, and the table list on the right will then display only the properties that are visible on the map. Follow the detailed instructions below to use this feature.



How to Route by Map


Setting Up

Step 1: Navigate to your main settings page and scroll down to the Sales Settings where you see the section called "Service Types". 

Step 2: Create service types for all of your current services. For example: Lawn, Mosquito, Aeration, etc. If you don't have different service types or don't want to use them, simply create one Service Type called "Default" for now. 

Step 3: Click into each service and assign the correct service type or the "Default" type if you only created one. Now, you're all set up to begin using the Map View! 



Using the Map View

Step 1: Navigate to the map view screen: https://dashboard.spraye.io/admin/assignJobsMap 

Step 2: Enter your filter criteria in the filter section on the right side of the map to show your desired services

You can filter the list by Property Type, call-ahead/notification status, services, service area, tags, and more.

Step 3: Once you have finished entering your filters, then click the "Update Map View" button at the bottom of the filter section.  


Note

  • The property list will filter properties as you zoom in/out/move the map and use the filters

    • Only properties visible on the map will show in the property list.

  • You are able to search/filter/sort by all other currently available fields (Plus zip code)

  • Map will only show properties that are still visible in the filtered table

  • You are able to select all visible or choose multiple properties (with checkboxes) just like on the Unassigned Services table view.

  • When selected, the corresponding pins on the map change to show a black outline

  • If you hover over a pin on the map, it will show the property name & address



How to Choose Properties using Polygon(s) and Clicking on Markers


Step 1: Follow instruction above to enter filter criteria and zoom into the section of the map you would like to schedule.


Step 2: Click on the "Polygon" icon at the top of the map.


Step 3: Draw your polygon around your desired properties by clicking to drop points onto the map. Complete your polygon by clicking back on your original point.


Step 4: Click on any other services you would like to include or add additional polygons to choose more properties.


Step 5: Assign services to your desired technician by clicking the "Assign Technician" button at the bottom of the map section.




Understanding the Map Markers


Past Due (for services): These services are past the ideal scheduling window for completion

New Customer: These are new sales that have not received a service

Pre-Notified/Call Aheads: These customers will receive a pre-service notification reminder and/or require a phone call ahead of service.

ASAP: Indicates a service that has been marked as "ASAP" to be completed first. 

Service Types: Each service offered by your company can be categorized into "Service Types" for easier reporting and scheduling. These can be defined in your Global Settings and you can choose a unique color for each Service Type that will then determine the color of the markers for each service on the scheduling map.

# of Days Since Last Service:  The number that appears in the center of the map markers represents the number of days since that customer last had a service of that same service type.  If there has never been a service of that type, then it will display the number of days since that specific program was assigned.

Multiple Service Marker: A property with multiple filtered services (i.e. Grub Control & Round 3) will show a small circle below the main marker. This circle will indicate the # of additional services at this property by the # of rings you see inside the circle. Additionally, the color of the circle or rings indicates the service type of this additional service.
