1. Review your existing territories.
You need the following types of information:

building territories for? For example, sales, telesales, collections, or service.
■ What transactional objects within your chosen usage are you assigning
resources to? This is your transaction type. For example, for Sales, it is
account, opportunity, or lead.
■ How are your territories currently assigned (by state, by industry, by zip
code, by account, and so on)?
■ Is Sales currently using named account territories, even if being manually
maintained?
■ What are the names and current territory assignments for your sales or
service personnel?

account, lead, and opportunity information and how is that information
