Creating a Location
Set up Locations to see where Assets are.
What is a Location?
A Location represents a physical place where Assets can be stored, used, or assigned. Locations can be anything from buildings and rooms to storage areas, workshops or fixed zones within your organisation.
Creating Locations allows you to:
- Find Assets in specific places
- Perform Stocktakes
- Perform Inventory Checks after you apply Manifests
- Filter and search Assets by where they are Located
How to Create a Location
In the G2G console, click the + icon in the top-right corner and select + New Location.
On the next page:
- Click Advanced
- Select + New Location
- Enter a name for the Location
- Click Save
Once saved, the Location will be available to assign tags to it, apply Manifests, and use across the system.
Things to Know
- Locations can represent any fixed place, not just buildings
- Locations can hierarchical e.g. Depot A > Shed 1 > Tool Cage
- Assets can be Dispatched to Locations and moved as needed
- Locations can have Tags, Manifests, and Workflows applied to them
- Creating clear, consistent Location names makes searching and reporting easier
Creating Locations early helps ensure Assets are organised correctly and easy to manage as your system grows.
