It annoys me that Alteryx doesn't draw great circle lines with poly build (but distance is calculated with great circle distances), so I incorporated @Matthew 's excellent great circle macro to make a more visually pleasing map.  I also only plotted the longest distance traveled on the map.  The solution looks a bit of a mess with every sales rep's path plotted.

Thanks for the kudos, @Jeremy! Hopefully the great circle path will get baked into the native poly build tool. But in the mean time, i'm glad you like the macro!

If I hadn't done any spatial before I'm sure this would've been a lot more tricky, but fortunately it was OK.
