Designing territories is one job. Organizing them into districts and regions is another, and it’s hard to do well when you can only see one level at a time. The district map view puts your whole hierarchy on a single map, so you can shape the management layer the same way you shaped the territories underneath it.
What the District Map View Shows
It displays all of your districts and their territories together, color-coded so you can see which territories belong to which district at a glance. Using the Touch Align tool, you reassign territories from one district to another and watch the change land instantly. It’s the natural home for district managers reviewing their span of control, and for sales ops balancing the management layer.

Using It to Balance the Hierarchy
The view earns its keep when districts are uneven. Shade it by a metric and you can see which district managers carry too much and which carry too little, then drag whole territories across district lines to even out span of control (the 8-to-12-territories rule of thumb from creating sales districts). Because you’re moving territories, not ZIP codes, the changes are fast and the underlying territory design stays intact. Keep the same hard rules in mind here too: if territories respect state lines, districts usually should as well.
