With six team members, she can auto-balance six territories to meet the criteria that she has found to be contributors to success in the past.<\/p>\n<p>With the second workflow, users can interactively create and update their territories. They can modify or \u201cfine tune\u201d territories using a number of panel, ribbon, and map-based tools alongside attribute layers and charts.
