User Manual: Locations: Add a Location to an Object

Locations are added to Objects through the Location, Movement, and Inventory Procedure. Locations can be added to one Object at a time, or the same Location can be assigned to multiple Objects.

  • To add a Location/Movement/Inventory record to an Object, navigate to the desired Object record or create a new Objectrecord
  • If you created a new Object, fill in all required fields and click Save
  • Click on the +Related tab and select Location/Movement/Inventory from the dropdown

  • In the Location/Movement/Inventory tab, click on +Create New

  • Enter at least a Reference Number, Current Location, and Location Date, along with any other fields required by your organization
  • The Current Location field pulls from your Storage Location Authority
  • Save the record

  • Return to the Primary Tab
  • Refresh the Record
  • The Current Location you entered will appear in the Computed Current Location field

  • To update the Current Location of an Object, repeat this process, adding a new Location/Movement/Inventory record rather than editing an existing one - this allows you to see an Object's Location History over time

  • To update the Location for a group of Objects:
    • Go to Create New
    • Create a new Location, Movement and Inventory Record
    • Enter at least a Reference Number, Current Location, and Location Date, along with any other fields required by your organization
    • Click on the Add button next to Related Objects in the right sidebar
    • Enter the Identification Numbers for the Objects you wish to attach to this Location, Movement, and Inventory record
    • Once all Object records are added, we recommend Saving the Location/Movement/Inventory record again, this time choosing Save and Lock from the confirmation pop-up to reduce the likelihood of someone inadvertently changing the location for all Objects
