Assign Customers By Distance (Business Analyst)

Disponible con licencia de Business Analyst.

Resumen

Assigns customers to the closest store based on a selected distance type.

Uso

  • The ID of the closest store is assigned to each customer. Store assignments are influenced by the selected value for Distance Type.

  • An Origin-Destination matrix calculates the least-cost paths between customers and stores using the Business Analyst network dataset and routing service.

  • When using a network distance type, you can adjust the Search Tolerance parameter value to define the maximum distance the input customer features can be from a road. Customer points beyond this distance will not receive a store assignment.

  • If a store cannot be assigned to a customer point, the new Store ID value will be null and the Distance value will contain a -1.
