Maps Live Layer and Maps Shape Layer are the two layers required to configure Live Rules. Live Rules are custom geofences that track whether a Maps Live Asset enters or exits a specific area5. To create a Live Rule, the user needs to select a Maps Live Layer and a Maps Shape Layer from the configuration options5. A Maps Live Layer is a layer that displays live location data of assets and drivers on the map3. A Maps Shape Layer is a layer that displays custom boundaries drawn on the map using polygon, circle, or rectangle tools6. These two layers define the assets and areas involved in the Live Rule. Maps Data Layer and Maps Marker Layer are not required for configuring Live Rules.

Explanation
The sales manager is unable to publish the alignment because they only have Commenter access to the alignment, the alignment must be submitted for approval before publishing, and the alignment must be approved before it can be published. These are the three possible reasons that prevent the sales manager from publishing the alignment to Salesforce Maps. Commenter access only allows users to view and comment on alignments, but not edit or publish them. Submitting and approving alignments are required steps for publishing alignments if Alignment Approval is enabled in the org. These are explained in the Control Access to Alignments and Set Up a Process for Alignment Approvals and Publishing documents.

According to the Salesforce Help article on Maps Geocoding FAQ4, geocoding is the process of taking input text, such as a street address, and returning a latitude and longitude, which can be used to plot the location on the Earth's surface. Salesforce Maps relies on interacting with a geocoding service through an API4. One of the initial troubleshooting steps that a consultant should take to address geocoding issues is to check Salesforce Help for the Maps Geocoder coverage table to determine what's the level of geocoding coverage for the client's region5. The geocoder coverage table contains information such as coverage level, localized address labels, point addresses, postal codes, and postal code format for each country or area5. Another initial troubleshooting step that a consultant should take is to assess the quality and structure of the address information on the client's records. The quality and structure of the address information can affect the accuracy and completeness of geocoding results4. For example, incomplete or invalid addresses, missing or incorrect postal codes, or non-standard address formats can cause geocoding errors or failures4.

To choose individual accounts from the Map without selecting the underlying geographical container, the Sales Manager should use the Arrow icon and the Unit Mode in Territory Planning. The Arrow icon allows the user to select individual units (accounts) on the map1. The Unit Mode allows the user to view and edit units without affecting containers2. The Container Mode allows the user to view and edit containers without affecting units2. The Filter options in the legend allow the user to filter units or containers by attributes, but not to select them individually1.
