We hope the latest chapter of our series,\u00a0\u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/microsoft-dynamics-365-field-service-enhanced-functionality-with-integrated-maps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Maplytics as a successful add-on to Microsoft Dynamics Field Service<\/a>\u2019, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Field Service: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/microsoft-dynamics-365-field-service-a-guide-for-resource-scheduling-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A Guide for Resource Scheduling Management<\/a> has perked up your interest in what is coming next! After successfully covering, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/microsoft-dynamics-365-field-service-enhanced-functionality-with-integrated-maps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Enhanced functionality<\/a> with Integrated Maps and A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/microsoft-dynamics-365-field-service-a-guide-for-territory-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Guide for Territory Management<\/a> as well, we are back with A complete Guide for Route Optimization! Let\u2019s dig in!<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What is in store?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/dynamics365\/field-service\/overview\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Microsoft Dynamics 365 Field Service<\/a> includes the act of plotting <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/dynamics365\/field-service\/rso-overview\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">optimized travel routes<\/a> within its resource scheduling segment. Hence, when the scheduler is plotting the appointments for the day for his resources, the travel routes get automatically plotted on the map.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;20552&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_outline&#8221; border_color=&#8221;black&#8221; onclick=&#8221;img_link_large&#8221; img_link_target=&#8221;_blank&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As seen in the screenshot, two appointments at the same client get mentioned twice but the travel route shows two meeting locations at the same place. The routes get added as the scheduler keeps adding in the meetings for the resources in the schedule. The travel routes of all the resources can be thus plotted over the map and visualized simultaneously. The routes are optimized and hence, the best possible ones that can be followed.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What can be enhanced with Maplytics?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As we have seen in the previous chapters of this Blog Series, Maplytics, the 5-star rated, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/maplytics-becomes-the-first-geolocation-solution-to-earn-the-prestigious-solution-partner-with-certified-software-designation-on-microsoft-appsource\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">certified app<\/a> on the Microsoft AppSource by Inogic is a geo-mapping app within Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM, and it can be used to extract more output from the existing functionality of Dynamics 365 Field Service. So, when we add Maplytics with the Routing function of Dynamics Field Service, it offers the following enhancements to the routing process-<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Toll-free, Highway-free, Traffic-free routes<\/li>\n<li>Radius Search<\/li>\n<li>Along the Route Search<\/li>\n<li>POI Location and<\/li>\n<li>Turn-by-turn Navigation<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Toll-free, Highway-free, Traffic-free routes<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>In Field Service, routes are automatically plotted to ensure the shortest possible travel time or distance. With Maplytics, schedulers can customize these routes by choosing to avoid tolls, traffic, and highways. The resulting optimized routes adhere to these preferences, further reducing travel time and distance. What&#8217;s even better is that these routes can be saved for future use, offering added convenience and efficiency.<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Radius Search<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">When the field rep is already on the field and following the plotted route, he may end up with a canceled\/postponed meeting, a meeting wrapping up earlier, or some extra time. The rep can at such times use Maplytics, open the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/radius-search-dynamics-crm\/\">Radius\/ Proximity Search<\/a> option, select his current location, provide a radius value for the distance\/ time he is willing to travel and get the clients plotted around him.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;20551&#8243; img_size=&#8221;450*850&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_outline&#8221; border_color=&#8221;black&#8221; onclick=&#8221;img_link_large&#8221; img_link_target=&#8221;_blank&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The rep can himself add the available clients into his schedule and hold ad hoc meetings! Doesn\u2019t it sound cool? His Scheduler\/ Manager too would be able to do the same for him or witness it if done by him.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Along the Route Search<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>When the rep is following the plotted optimized route, he can search and plot new clients and leads on that route and visit them or plan meetings with them in the future.<\/p>\n<p>The saved route can then be used for easy navigation.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;20550&#8243; img_size=&#8221;450*850&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_outline&#8221; border_color=&#8221;black&#8221; onclick=&#8221;img_link_large&#8221; img_link_target=&#8221;_blank&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\n<h5><strong>POI Location<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>While on the go, the rep needs places like restaurants, gas stations, cafes, etc. to refresh, recharge, even kill time, or address some urgent work. Without diverting from the set, optimized route, the rep can select his place of interest and search for any of the above places and more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/point-of-interest-search\/\">nearby<\/a>![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;20549&#8243; img_size=&#8221;450*850&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_outline&#8221; border_color=&#8221;black&#8221; onclick=&#8221;img_link_large&#8221; img_link_target=&#8221;_blank&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\n<h5><strong>Turn-by-Turn Navigation<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>The traffic-free, stress-free, optimized routes come with an extra advantage. They all possess turn-by-turn navigation directions. These directions can be freely followed for navigation, shared over emails, and even printed for better use.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;20548&#8243; img_size=&#8221;450*850&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_outline&#8221; border_color=&#8221;black&#8221; onclick=&#8221;img_link_large&#8221; img_link_target=&#8221;_blank&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A little addition can make a vital difference and make life easy.
