Summary
Exports Territories to Business Analyst Trade Areas.
Exporting Territories allows Business Analyst to read the territory polygons within the Trade Area wizard.
Usage
Only Territory Solutions with a BDS Alignment Layer are valid.
The Territory Name format is as follows: Territory_Name[Territory_OID].
The Territory Level format is as follows: Level_Name[Level_Index].
The Territory Level can be an Alignment Layer (use full-qualified name of Alignment Layer in this case).
Creating a Trade Area format depends on the value specified in the Business Analyst settings (see "BA Preferences / Data / Output Data Format").

Code Sample
The following Python window script demonstrates how to use Business Analyst geoprocessing tool in immediate mode.
import arcgisscripting
gp = arcgisscripting.create()
gp.ExportTerritoriesToTradeAreas_TD("new layer", "Territories[1]", "ALL_TERRITORIES_FROM_LEVEL", "New Trade Area")
The following stand-alone script demonstrates how to use the tool.
# Import system modules
import arcgisscripting
gp = arcgisscripting.create()
# Set local variables
solution = "new layer"
level = "Territories[1]"
territory = "ALL_TERRITORIES_FROM_LEVEL"
name = "New Trade Area"
# Execute tool
gp.ExportTerritoriesToTradeAreas_TD(solution, level, territory, name)
Environments
This tool does not use any geoprocessing environments
