Route impact (activity duration + travel time)
Resolved activity coordinates
Distance from the selected activity to the activities in the resource’s route and Start/End/
Home location
Resource Work Zone match
Accuracy of the travel statistics data
9 Route impact and hint View the duration by which the route changes if you assign the activity to this resource.
The time includes the extra travel time and the duration of all the activities being moved.
It is calculated as (total_activities_duration_after_assign + total_travel_time_after_assign -
total_activities_duration_before_assign - total_travel_time_before_assign). Click the column
to view the hint. The hint shows the duration of the activity being moved and the extra travel
time required for the activity.
