Route Optimization within Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM

Samwell is in trouble?

“O Samwell, finally! Where are you, buddy? We were getting worried. You were supposed to reach that meeting location 30 minutes ago”, John, the Manager shuddered through the call. “I could not find the meeting location, took a wrong turn, and had to backtrack 3 miles”, Samwell replied, exasperated.

Imagine being Samwell or John and having to face the client after this. How embarrassing, right? What impression would it leave? Moreover, 30 minutes of a scheduled meeting meeting would be wasted.

Besides, if it is the very first meeting for pitching the product, sigh!

First impressions and can make or break a deal! It would not be feasible if the rep spends more time searching for a meeting venue than attending the meeting with the client.

Swooshes in Maplytics, the seamless integrator of maps and CRM

Maplytics is the go-to map visualization app to avoid any such a traumatizing situation and a lot more. Let’s see how! Finding the best route to visit customer locations is one of the fortes of the App. After all, Team Maplytics knows that reps like Samwell need to be productive, not waste time backtracking, be punctual, and enjoy a work-life balance!

Reaching meetings and fulfilling all the above responsibilities becomes a cakewalk for the field reps when they are out on the field and need to navigate from one location to the other if provided with a sales route planner within Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM.

The Geo-Analytical, geo-mapping module of Maplytics helps to optimize the travel routes between locations chosen for their visits even when they are far from each other. An added plus is that the direction route maps thus achieved can be saved in Dynamics 365.

Adding multiple waypoints is also easy

What if Samwell has to attend 5 meetings in a day within a tight time space?

The routes plotted offer a multi-stop inclusion of the provided waypoints and ensures a coverage of every location within a shortest time span or within shortest travel distance. These routes come along with turn-by-turn navigation directions in Dynamics 365 CRM and can be used on Google Maps, Waze App, and Apple Maps.

‘Avoiding highways’ and ‘Avoiding toll’ are additional available filters for route mapping in Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM. These help route finders within Dynamics 365 CRM with optimized routes!

Route Optimization in Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM
But what steps will John have to take to make this work smoothly?

Auto-Scheduling, the other feature of Maplytics, allows the choice of waypoints for travel and creates an optimized schedule on the map within Dynamics 365 CRM. This sets the base for enabling Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM route optimization. John can register the default preferences for the Auto Scheduling card in the Configuration detail records to proceed and plot an automated plan on the map for Samwell.

This enables the transit through the schedule over days and keeps a track of the appointments along with the ability to Check-In/Check-Out for the meetings/appointments from the location itself. After creating the schedule on the map in Dynamics 365 John can attempt the Dynamics 365 route map and activities for the meetings, services, and resource booking can be catered to.

Sounds pretty simple, right?

Route Optimization within Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM thus, helps organizations with optimized travel routes toward meeting venues, turn-by-turn navigation directions at hand, being punctual for the meetings, saving time and fuel for the traveling rep, and overall maintaining a good relationship with the client.
