In some cases, it may be beneficial to separate the ecosystems into various sections. In Loopfront we call this functionality Location groups.
Location groups can be used to divide your ecosystem into departments, regions, areas, agencies, offices etc. If you have this functionality accessible it will show in your features tab in your organization settings.
When you use location groups, you may:
- Filter all pages on location group level
- Give location access to users on location group level
- Report savings on location group level
How to set and adjust location groups
Use the Settings button on the Location groups tile in the feature tab at organization settings (only accessible to admins) to access the window where Location groups may be set and adjusted.
In the pop-up window for Location groups, a list can be made with the opportunity to group locations in a preferred way. Both List title and Group name are free-text and can be defined freely by the user. Locations may then be selected for each group. One location may be added to multiple groups.
Examples of the benefits of using Location groups:
1. Ability to filter on defined groups.
2. Ability to filter on site group reuse level savings.
3.Ability to filter on material reuse level savings.
