Which of the following is NOT a stop type when adding a stop?

Explanation:
Stops are given roles that describe what that point does in the shipment. A stop can be a pickup, telling the system where to collect goods, or a delivery, indicating where goods should be dropped off. Detention refers to the time allotted or charged for being at a stop, which is a time-related attribute tied to that stop. Route Optimization, on the other hand, isn’t describing a stop’s role; it’s a planning feature that determines the best order and timing for the entire set of stops. You apply optimization to the route as a whole, not label a single stop with that term. So Route Optimization is not a stop type.
