Transportation Manager supports the i2 Distance Engine. i2 Distance is normally used exclusively by Transportation Planner during optimization as this engine will sacrifice a degree of accuracy to improve throughput.
Route Types
The following Route Types (Parameter Name I2RouteType) are supported for TM / i2 Distance integration:

T/F |
Default True. This parameter will determine how to handle the situation where the distance engine fails to compute a distance/transit time for any reason, including the case where the distance engine is not available. If True, an approximate distance and time will be computed based on the difference in latitude/longitude between the two locations; if False, the distance/transit time retrieval request will fail. |
