Close Your Route

After you complete all the store visit tasks and checking out of the appointments, settle and close your route at the end of the day.

Before you close your route, you must check out of all the appointments associated with the route. When the appointment isn't complete, you must select a valid reason before you can close the route.

Upon arrival to the distribution center at the end of the day the salesperson starts the settlement process. The salesperson can also review the route summary, available documents, and expenses incurred for the route during the visit.
