Learn more about how Assign by Closest Location works

Verwendung

  • You cannot undo the assignment of customers to stores in an existing field.

  • Customers are assigned to the closest store location.

  • Assignments are based on a straight-line Euclidean distance calculation.

  • Use the Assign By Trade Area tool if you do not want to assign customers using a straight-line distance. The Assign By Trade Area tool can be used with drive-time polygons.

  • If a customer is at an equal distance from two or more stores, the customer will be assigned to the first store in the attribute table.
