Organize your field by setting up zones. As a best practice, we suggest you create a zone that an agent can run in one day within your coverage area.


Set up your coverage area before setting up your zones. 



Creating Zones

Zones can be set up in three different ways:

1. State/County

2. Circle Area

3. Drawn Area 


To set up, click Zones under Your Areas.
