== Routing ==
These options impact the route finding:
* Balance - Optimize total travel time vs clock time needed to finish all rounds (makespan).
* Max roundtime - Maximum duration of a round , when dividing stopsover multiple rounds.
* Home address - The default departure address that will automagically be added to the map each time.
* Default departure time - Your departure time from which arrival times are calculated.
* Default service time - The default service time, used for arrival times and time windows. Changes will only apply to newly added addresses.
* Navigate with - The service used for turn-by-turn gps navigation, started by the [[Navigate]] button or [[Fulfillment]] dialog.
== Advanced ==
These settings are advanced feature to impact the route planning [[Algorithm]]. They may be experimentalor may give unexpected results. Use with care.
* Turn penalty - adds turn costs to the algorithm, e.g. add 10 seconds to each left turn.
* Geocoding preference - The geocoder service that is used for your addresses.
* API key - Your optional API key for geocoding services. For , for high volume users only, keep . Keep emptyfor normal usage.
* Suffix address - Text to be added to addresses when sent to the [[geocoding]] service. May be used to add a city, state and/or country.
* Replace tabs - If enabled, any tab in your addresses will be replaced with a comma. This may improve geocoding when copying addresses from spreadsheet.
These options impact the appearance of the [[user interface]]:
* [[Map style]] - Select another theme for the map. Note that the [[algorithm]] will always use OpenStreetMap for your routes, no matter what map style the user interface has.
* Retina maps - Use high resolution maps on retina screens. Some map styles may show very small characters.
* CSV seperator - Character to be used to split fields in the CSV [[download]].
* CSV fields - Select the columns to be included in the CSV file. Keep empty for the default., or use: ''stop address name distance duration comment servicetime demand heading arrival ready due'' (case-sensitive, use only lowercase)
== Print ==
* Speed - The percentage of the normal speed to use in planning. Use 100% for normal speed. If our routes are too fast, e.g. total travel time is too small, use a value below 100%. If our routes are too slow, use a value above 100%.
* Unit of capacity: Select the unit to be used for capacity retrictionsrestrictions in [[multiple rounds]]. E.g. use "m3" if your vehicles have a maximum volume they can load.
* Capacities: Sets the capacity for each round, such as vehicles. One number for each round, seperated by spaces. E.g. set to "6 6 6 6" if four vehicles have maximum 6 m3 capacity.
== WEBFLEET ==
Only for TomTom Telematics [[WEBFLEET]] users. This tab is used to enter your user credentials.
