Import

The Import button is a powerful tool to add multiple destination addresses at once. You can copy addresses in any application and paste those in the Import textarea.

Instructions

1. Select the addresses in the origin application, e.g. Word, Excel or Outlook

2. Copy all addresses using the correct keyboard combination (often Ctrl-c)

3. In RouteXL, press the Import button

4. Select the textarea and paste the addresses (often Ctrl-v)

5. Press the Import button

6. Wait until all addresses have been added

Notes

• Each address should be on one line.

• If locations are not found, use the correct Address format or select another Geocoding service.

• If there are problems, a message will be displayed after all addresses have been handled.

Advantages

Adding destinations via the Import tool has several advantages. Obviously, you won't need to enter each address in the search box one by one, which saves time. But next to that, placing the addresses on the map is also faster. Instead of sending each address to a Geocoding service, the route planners database is checked first.

Additional fields

You can also import names, time windows and comments with an address. These fields will be stripped from the input before geocoding and added to the location on the map.

• Names between @ and @

• Ready and due time before and after >>

• Comments between { and }

Example

Kennemerstraatweg 464, 1851 NG Heiloo, The Netherlands @Our office@ 09:00>>17:00 {Use the main entrance}

WEBFLEET

If you have a WEBFLEET account a button is added to allow import of WEBFLEET orders.
