To add an individual route to your CalAmp account, follow these steps:

Note: Remember, in the CalAmp application, a route isn't a path that a vehicle is assigned to follow (a specific itinerary of stops along a course); rather, a CalAmp route is an attribute you can define to use as a filter (such as snow routes in a certain area).

  1. In the sidebar menu on the left, click .
     
  2. Click Routes on the flyout menu that appears.
     
    The Admin - Routes screen will appear.
       
  3. Click Add New at the top right of the screen.
     
    The Add Route dialog box will appear.
       
  4. Type the route name in the Name field.
     
    By default, the group you currently have selected in the Group Chooser will be set for the group to assign the route to.
     
  5. If you would like to place it in a different group, click the Group drop-down arrow and select the group from the list.
    Note: Only the name and group are required. If that's all you need to specify, you can skip to step 10. However, it's recommended that you fill in as much data about the route as possible.
  6. Type an explanation of the route in the Description field.
     
  7. If your organization has created route categories, click the Route Category drop-down arrow and select the category the route belongs to.
    Note: The categories listed will be those that are available for the group you have placed the route in.
  8. Leave the Route Status field at its default value of Enabled.
    Note: The Disabled and Suspended options will make the route unable to be assigned to a vehicle asset, but this won't likely be necessary when you are adding a new one.
  9. If you want the route to be able to be applied to subgroups of the group it is assigned to (so the subgroups, or child groups, can inherit the route from the parent group), select Inheritable.
     
  10. Click Done.
       
    Your new route will appear in the Routes list, and a success message will appear at the bottom of the screen.
      
  11. Click OK to dismiss it. (Or you can wait a few seconds, and it will automatically close.)

Note: To see how to assign the route to a vehicle its attribute applies to, go to Assigning Entities to an Asset.
