Facilities can be, for example, places where you keep your storage items. Labs can have rooms where they store their items.


For example, let’s say the storage room for a lab is ROOM_Lab01 and it is a room where you store your sample like biology cell/bacterial/tissue/chemical/soil/etc samples.


The first level is created and edited from the Admin menu. If no location is defined, all storage places are referred to as under “No location assigned” or “Main location”.


Go to Admin → Storage → Manage Storage → Facilities



Here you can add new main locations or edit existing places. Give a short name for the location and a description. 

The storage facility may also be associated with a group to limit access (see Groups definitions in section 3.2.2).
