Destination Or Dump Point?

In certain cases such as dumps and stockpiles, there will be a dump point in addition to a destination. In these cases, the dump or stockpile entry point should be entered as the destination and additional dump points added for the tipping locations within the dump or stockpile areas.

The list of displayed Node ID names is automatically generated from the destinations which were defined under Managing Destinations and additionally defined as either stockpiles or dumps.
