Locations

You may wish to track where inventory items are stored. This is actually done through the inventory module, however, the inventory module validates locations against data which is stored in locations under the orgs module. So, if you want to use Isora GRC to track the locations of inventory, then you should add locations before you start adding inventory to Isora GRC.

Location Fields

site

name of the main location site

building

building within the site

room

specific room within the building

description

optional details about the location

confidential

“true” or “false”

 

You learn how to add locations here: How to Add Locations .

Confidential Locations

You may have locations which exist, but their location is a secret. This is the purpose of the “confidential” checkbox. If someone entering inventory data indicates the location of an item to be a confidential location, they can do so and the location will validate correctly. But if they try to search for a location with that name, it won’t show up. Superusers will see confidential locations in the table under the manage locations page, but ordinary users won’t.
