About Getting Started With Locations and General Structure
- Locations can help users organize devices in a manner that is fitting to their specific account (i.e., by geographical location and/or application)
- Sketch out a general structure beforehand to consider how detailed it will be
- User permissions are also managed by the locations a user may have access to
- Various structures can be created to allow flexibility and achieve your needs
How to Get Started With Locations and General Structure
Basic Example:
The Primary Location (The Company Name in the Account Settings) with Devices Below it. All the Devices are at Pharma Co. Pharma Co. - Device - Device - DeviceOne Building with Multiple Locations:
Single Building with Multiple Locations. The Primary Location is Pharma Co. In Pharma Co. there are two main locations, West Wing and East Wing, with additional sub-locations. Pharma Co. - West Wing - Chemical Storage Room - Device(s) - Laboratory- Device(s) - East Wing
- Incubators
- Device(s) - Laboratory 2
- Device(s) Note Each location can have infinite devices in it, 1 or even zero for when you are ready to add devices. We recommend adding a location for achieved devices, should device ever be replaced or removed from the account.
Multiple Locations with Multiple Facilities:
Multiple Locations with Multiple Facilities may be used for a larger network. The example shows Pharma Co. Network as the account name and super location overseeing the Chicago, IL Facility and Addison, IL Facility.
Pharma Co. Network - Chicago, IL Facility- West Wing 1
- Chemical Storage Room 1 - Device(s) - Laboratory 1 - Device(s) - East Wing 1

- Device(s)
- East Wing 2
- Incubators 2
- Device(s)
