Create Location

To create a Location, click on the Locations tab in the main menu. This button provides you with an overview of all the existing locations in smartview.

Click on the button and choose a name for your Location.

After creating a Location, you can define optional detailed information for it, such as address, email, contact and exact position (i.e. longitude and latitude information) of the Location. Further on, if you are using SmartView for shipment monitoring, then you have the option to configure a Location to be used as an Origin and/or Destination for shipments.

Note: Provide the email address of the person responsible for the Location (e.g Location Manager). If the Network Monitoring functionality is turned on for your site, the system will use the email address to notify you in case the network of the location is found offline for more than an hour.

If you are using the SmartView for Shipment Monitoring then you will see the Shipment Settings section in the Edit Location screen (as shown in the above image). This section allows you to mark a Location for the usage of Origin and/or Destination.

If you want a Location to be used as Origins of Shipment then check the box Use as Origin.
If you want a Location to be used as Destinations of Shipment then check the box Use as Destination.
To use a Location for Origins and Destinations then check both of the options.
