Sales Territory Planning Tool — illustrative example INPUT Assign accounts A01–A45 to representatives North and South, each with capacity for 20 accounts. No other ownership restrictions. Preserve an explicit unassigned list. RESULT North: A01–A20, 20 accounts. South: A21–A40, 20 accounts. Unassigned: A41–A45, 5 accounts. Capacity used: 40 of 40. Decision needed: add capacity or reprioritize five accounts; do not silently exceed either representative's limit. REVIEW Territories should reflect capacity and service constraints, not only account counts. Flag assignments that conflict with supplied ownership rules. This is a teaching example, not a live execution record.
